The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between anthropometric measures and steep cornea.Participants from 1999 2008 US National Health Nutrition Examination Survey visual examination were included (20,165 subjects). Cases had a mean dioptric power, averaged across meridians, ≥ 48.0 diopters (n = 171). Separate multivariable models assessed body mass index, height, weight in relation cornea. Analyses both overall sex-stratified populations.A BMI cornea population not detected...
