The only proven strategy to prevent primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is the use of ocular hypotensive therapy among people diagnosed with ocular hypertension. In this review, various modifiable lifestyle factors, such as exercise, diet, and cigarette smoking, that may influence intraocular pressure and that have been studied in relation to the risk of developing POAG are discussed. Epidemiologic studies on lifestyle factors are few, and the current evidence suggests that there are no environmental factors that are clearly associated with POAG; however, a few factors merit further study. This review also outlines future directions for research into the primary prevention of POAG.
预防原发性开角型青光眼（POAG）的唯一已证实策略是对被诊断为高眼压症的人群采用降眼压治疗。在本综述中，讨论了各种可能影响眼压且已针对发生POAG风险进行研究的可改变生活方式因素，如运动、饮食和吸烟。关于生活方式因素的流行病学研究较少，目前的证据表明，没有明确与POAG相关的环境因素；然而，有几个因素值得进一步研究。本综述还概述了POAG一级预防研究的未来方向。
