Welcome, @sundew404. I added your question to the Heart & Blood Health group as well. Here is the link to the study you quoted:

- Association of Dry Eye Disease with Dyslipidemia and Statin Use https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8034500/

Are there any lifestyle changes that you can add, like dietary considerations or exercise, that would help lower your cholesterol?

Thank you Colleen, especially for posting the link (though I think this thread kind of got sidetracked by a spinal surgery query). I already eat pretty healthfully and am in pretty decent shape. I can probably work harder at that, but my high cholesterol is unfortunately hereditary, although I was lucky to have a decent cholesterol profile until after menopause.
