    Prelesnik, Uroš
    Background: In the article was described the connection between cigarette smoking and age related cataract and glaucoma. Case histories of our patients showed that a lot of people were smokers, so we ... wanted to research possible connections. Methods: 250 patients where analysed and the number of cigarettessmoked per day and duration ofsmoking (in years) were established. The patients were examined on the slitlamp and the eye pressure was measured. Classical statistical methods (chi-square, odds ratio) were used. Results and conclusion: Analysis shows the connection between cigarette smoking and age related cataract and glaucoma. Risk for the onset of age related cataract increases with increasing of SI. But there is no important difference in the onset of glaucoma regarding SI. It is very interesting, that risk for the onset of age related cataract at nonsmokers is very similar the risk in group of smokers with SI <600. This study calls our attention to the harmful effectsof smoking on some eye diseases. This is important for the counseling regarding a more healthy life style.
