(2) Methods: The Montrachet study (Maculopathy Optic Nerve and nutrition neurovAsCular and HEarT) is a population-based study including participants aged 75 years and over. All participants had a slit lamp examination, fundus photographs, and a questionnaire about their medical past history and smoking status. Optic disc spectral domain optical coherence tomography was also performed. All glaucoma-suspected patients were convocated to have a new full examination. We only retained one eye with POAG for analysis in the glaucoma group and one eye without optic neuropathy in the control participants group. MPOD measurements were performed with the two-wavelength autofluorescence method (488 and 514 nm). (3) Results: Overall, 601 eyes had MPOD measurements among 1153 participants. Among the 601 eyes, 48 had POAG. The mean age for the glaucoma and control participants was 84.01 \u00b1 4.22 years and 81.94 \u00b1 3.61 years, respectively (p &lt; 0.001). In the multivariable analysis, we could not find any association between POAG and MPOD at 0.5\u00b0 (p = 0.336). We found no significant difference regarding MP spatial distribution between the two groups (p = 0.408). (4) Conclusion: In this elderly population-based study, eyes with POAG and control eyes without optic neuropathy did not differ in terms of MPOD and MP spatial distribution.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm11071830","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,27]],"date-time":"2022-03-27T21:27:51Z","timestamp":1648416471000},"page":"1830","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Macular Pigment and Open-Angle Glaucoma in the Elderly: The Montrachet Population-Based Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7831-8818","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Louis","family":"Arnould","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"},{"name":"Clinical Epidemiology\/Clinical Trials Unit, Clinical Investigation Center, INSERM, CIC 1432, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"},{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alassane","family":"Seydou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9417-5754","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Christine","family":"Binquet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinical Epidemiology\/Clinical Trials Unit, Clinical Investigation Center, INSERM, CIC 1432, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9688-4845","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pierre-Henry","family":"Gabrielle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"},{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chlo\u00e9","family":"Chamard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Gui de Chauliac Hospital, 34000 Montpellier, France"},{"name":"Neuropsychiatry\u2014Epidemiological and Clinical Research, Inserm, PSNREC, Montpellier University, 34000 Montpellier, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6957-100X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lionel","family":"Bretillon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7265-931X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alain M.","family":"Bron","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"},{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3401-8079","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Niyazi","family":"Acar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Catherine","family":"Creuzot-Garcher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Dijon University Hospital, 21000 Dijon, France"},{"name":"Centre des Sciences du Go\u00fbt et de l\u2019Alimentation, AgroSup Dijon, CNRS, INRAE, Universit\u00e9 Bourgogne Franche-Comt\u00e9, 21000 Dijon, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1249","DOI":"10.1016\/j.visres.2010.04.009","article-title":"The relationship between macular pigment and visual performance","volume":"50","author":"Loughman","year":"2010","journal-title":"Vis.
