The cut-off value of dyslipidemia was as any of the following : hypercholesterolemia (TC ≥ 200 mg/dL); hypertriglycemia (TG ≥150 mg/dL); low HDL, <40 mg/dL; or high LDL ≥ 100 mg/dL.
† Model1 = Adjusted for demographic factors (age, and body mass index)
‡ Model2 = Model1 + adjusted for lifestyle factors (smoking, drinking, exercise, and residential district)
§ Model3 = Model 2 + adjusted for medical factors (diabetes, hypertension, previous ocular surgery, menopause, and rheumatologic diseases).
