AbstractMild hyperhomocysteinemia is established as an independent risk factor for atherothrombotic disease, including ocular pathologies such as retinal vascular occlusion and non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION). Low intake or low status of B-vitamins explains elevated total homocysteine (tHcy) concentrations only in part. The underlying cause for disturbed homocysteine metabolism requires further insight. We investigated whether the combined determinations of plasma tHcy, methylmalonic acid (MMA) and cystathionine provide more information on the causes of impaired homocysteine metabolism as compared with vitamin B
