Description

Mohammed Moussa and co-authors compare eye measures in sleep apnea patients and healthy controls in a 2026 study. Obstructive sleep apnea interrupts breathing during sleep and comes in stages of severity. The team asked whether the front window of the eye, the cornea, and the pressure inside the eye differ by stage.

The study included fifty-five patients and twenty-two healthy controls, all checked with a full night sleep study. Eye exams in the same week measured pressure and mapped the cornea with a camera based system. Pressure inside the eye was higher in moderate and severe cases than in controls. The front chamber of the eye was shallower in mild and severe groups. Several eye measures also tracked with arousal levels during sleep.
