Abstract :Objective:: To evaluate anterior segment parameters in obese children Material and methods: 55 obese and 30 control group children subjects participated. All participants and the control group were examined and anthropometric measurements were made. The measurements of fasting blood glucoseinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(FBG);, triglycerideinsert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TG);, total cholesterol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(TC);, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HDL-C);, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(LDL-C);, and insulin values were performed. The homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(HOMA‑IR); was calculated. Each participant underwent a detailed ophthalmic examination and IOP, CCT, ACD and LT were measured. Results: The gender distribution of the groups was similar insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p=0.893);. The mean of CCT and LT were significantly higher in the obese group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(572.9 ± 14.5 vs. 559.5 ± 10.1 µm, p=0.001; 3.6 ± 0.14 vs. 3.48 ± 0.25 mm, p=0.007); . No significant difference was found between the obese and control groups in terms of other parameters. BMI and WC had a significant negative correlation with LT control groups. The obese group showed a significant positive correlation between IOP and TG insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.276, p=0.042);, and a significant negative correlation with HDL-C insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=-0.273, p=0.043);. In the control group, there was a significant positive correlation between IOP and BMI insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.389, p=0.034);, WC insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.497, p=0.005);, HOMA-IR insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.384, p=0.036);, Insulin insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.407, p=0.026);, and a significant negative correlation with TC insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=-0.511, p=0.004);. A significantly positive correlation between ACD and LDL-C insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=0.371, p=0.043); and a significantly negative correlation between HOMA-IR in the control group were detected insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(r=-0.682, p=0.000);. Conclusion: The obese group had higher CCT and LT than the control groups.
