Dietary-related characteristics and cataract risk: evidence from a mendelian randomization study

Cataract is the leading cause of blindness globally, imposing a significant socioeconomic burden. While diet is associated with various eye diseases, the causal relationship between dietary-related characteristics (DRCs) and cataract remains unclear. This study investigates the causal associations b...
