Description
Xiangfei Xianyu and colleagues compare blood fats and eye blood flow in people with hard drusen, the early deposits seen in age-related eye disease. Forty-eight patients identified by eye angiography and 51 healthy controls had blood tests and retinal vessel scans.
Blood measures included prealbumin, glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and good and bad cholesterol fractions. Eye scans mapped surface and deep vessel density plus flow gaps in the choriocapillaris layer. The drusen group ran higher on glucose, total cholesterol, and bad cholesterol, with larger and denser flow gaps, linking body lipids to eye circulation.
