Investigation of associations between corneal arcus and cardiovascular parameters.
Data from the population-based Gutenberg Health Study (2012–2017). Multivariable logistic regression analysis with Generalized Estimation Equations (GEE) modelling was conducted to determine associated factors.

Investigation of associations with dense corneal arcus.
Data from the population-based Gutenberg Health Study (2012–2017). Multivariable logistic regression analysis with GEE modelling was conducted to determine associated factors. As control group, those with corneal arcus without dense characteristic were included.
