Inclusion criteria for the normal weight and overweight groups included BMI between 18.5–22.9 and 23.0–29.9 kg/m,2 respectively. Subjects with a history of systemic disease, ocular disease or surgery, or disability were excluded. All subjects underwent a medical history interview, arterial blood pressure, height, weight, waist circumference and hip circumference measurements, and BMI and waist-hip ratio calculation. The intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior corneal curvature were measured by non-contact tonometry and corneal topography, respectively. Measurement of anterior and posterior segment parameters of the eye, including central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber angle, macular thickness (MT), ganglion cell thickness (GCT), retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, cup to disc ratio, and choroidal thickness was performed by enhanced depth-imaging optical coherence tomography.Results: There was a positive correlation between ACD and BMI (Univariate analysis; β =0.198, P=0.030, Multivariate analysis; β =0.410, P=0.005) and between BMI and IOP (Univariate analysis; β =0.269, P=0.003). The IOP of the overweight group was found to be significantly higher than of the normal weight group (12.80±3.40 and 11.86±2.12 mm Hg, respectively, P=0.002). Also, there was a significant difference found between the GCT and the MT of the two groups (P=0.036 and 0.009, respectively).Conclusion: It was found that BMI strongly correlated with ACD and IOP. Also, the degree of obesity was found to be a significant factor; therefore, the relationship between these ocular parameters and the severity of obesity should be further investigated.Keywords: BMI, overweight, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depthPanon NLuangsawang KRugaber CTongchit TThongsepee NCheaha DKongjaidee PChangtong ADaradas AChotimol PDove Medical PressarticleBMIoverweightintraocular pressureanterior chamber depthOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 13, Pp 763-769 (2019)
