Comment on: Comparison of serum sodium and potassium levels in patients with senile cataract and age-matched individuals without cataract
Sir, We read with great interest the study by Mathur and Pai[1] entitled, “Comparison of serum sodium and potassium levels in patients with senile cataract and age‐matched individuals without cataract,” in which the authors showed that higher serum sodium level is associated with increased risk of senile cataract. We believe that the authors should be congratulated for the great work as the res...

Sir, We congratulate Mathur and Pai for their interesting article entitled, “Comparison of serum sodium and potassium levels in patients with senile cataract and age‐matched individuals without cataract,”[1] in which they noted significantly higher mean serum sodium levels in individuals above 50 years of age with cataract than in age‐matched individuals without cataract; however, mean serum po...
متن کاملSerum Sodium and Potassium Levels in Senile Cataract Patients and Age Matched Normal Individuals
Material and Methods: The study was designed as cross sectional observational study. 200 senile cataract patients scheduled for cataract surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology and 200 individuals of the same age group without cataract were selected. Mean serum sodium and potassium levels in the senile cataract group were calculated and compared with the control group. Serum sodium and potas...
متن کاملDecreased Serum Zinc Levels in Patients with Senile Cataract
Introduction: Age related cataract is the leading cause of blindness in the world today and cataract extraction is the most often performed surgery. If a practical large scale intervention could slow the onset of cataract by ten years, the need for cataract surgery would be reduced by 45%. The causes of cataract are multiple, with nutrition playing a definite role. The usually high concentratio...
متن کاملComparative study of serum Na+ and K+ levels in senile cataract patients and normal individuals
Many factors such as aging, changes in blood electrolytes levels, and possibly family history are involved in senile cataract formation. Changes in serum electrolytes levels can induce changes in aqueous electrolytes levels and effect on lens metabolism and probably cataract formation. In this paper, we study serum level of Na(+ )and K(+) in senile cataract patients and normal individuals. Meth...
