Brief summary

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between retinal thickness (RT) and metabolic risks (MRs) in patients without retinal lesion. Methods: Fifty-two patients over 60 y/o were divided into four groups according to their MRs of hypertension, hyperlipidemia or hyperglyceremia. After complete ophthalmic examination, optical coherence tomography was performed to measure RT.
