flag New study suggests higher "good" cholesterol links to increased glaucoma risk, contrary to expectations.

flag A new UK study indicates a potential link between cholesterol levels and the risk of developing glaucoma, a progressive eye disease leading to vision loss. flag Participants with higher "good" cholesterol (HDL) levels were 10% more likely to develop glaucoma, while those with elevated "bad" cholesterol (LDL) had an 8% lower risk. flag Experts recommend annual eye exams, especially for those over 40 or with a family history of glaucoma, and stress the importance of balanced cholesterol levels and regular health screenings.
