001) after adjustment for age, hypertension, diabetes, and body mass index. The difference remained significant for men ( P <. In men, mean IOP values by hematocrit level were as follows: below-normal hematocrit, 13.3 mmHg (13.2–13.3), normal hematocrit, 13.5 mmHg (13.4–13.5), above-normal hematocrit, 14.3 mmHg (13.5–15.2) ( P <. Normal-range hematocrit for men was 42% to 52% and 37% to 47% for women. Hematocrit levels were categorized as low, normal, and high and by sex IOP values were categorized as < 18 mmHg and ≥18 mmHg.Ĭross-sectional analysis was performed on 18,424 subjects of mean (standard deviation) age 46 (10) years (68% male). To assess a possible relationship between hematocrit level and intraocular pressure (IOP) in both men and women.ĭata were collected from medical records of individuals examined at a screening center in Israel between the years 20.
