BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to explore the association of systemic inflammatory biomarkers (systemic immune-inflammation (SII) index and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI)) with the prevalence of ocular disease in the general population of the United States (U.S.). METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study of subjects in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2008 years. For the analysis of the association of SII index, and SIRI with the prevalence of ocular disease (glaucoma, cataract, age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), and diabetic retinopathy), the restricted cubic spline (RCS) plot, multivariable logistic regression models, and subgroup analysis were performed. RESULTS: There was a total of 5377 individuals. As shown by the RCS plot, SII index and SIRI were linked with ARMD risk in a U-shaped pattern. Additionally, the SII index and SIRI were linearly positive with glaucoma and cataract. Finally, the risk of diabetic retinopathy was associated with the L-shaped and N-shaped curves of the SII index and SIRI, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Two new systemic inflammatory biomarkers, SII index and SIRI, are closely related to the risk of eye disease. There are different associations between SII index and different ocular diseases. This should raise more concerns and lead to better prevention strategies for systemic inflammation.
