Hypertension could affect your eye sight

Do you know that there's actually a pretty interesting connection between the eyes and high blood pressure (aka hypertension)?

So, in people with hypertension, the pressure inside the blood vessels can actually damage the tiny blood vessels in the retina ( the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye).

This is called hypertensive retinopathy, and it can cause problems like:
👉blurred vision,
👉floaters, and even
👉vision loss.

So if you have hypertension, it's important to get regular eye exams to check for any signs of damage to the eyes.
