Hypertension and other organs

Image
                                      Hypertension can affect more than your heart – it can take a toll on other vital parts of your body. Luckily, there’s plenty you can do. Hypertension and your eyes You may not be able to detect any outward signs of hypertension in yourself, but your doctor can look into your eyes and see whether hypertension has damaged them. A brief period of very high blood pressure can cause some loss of visual clarity which generally subsides once the blood pressure level returns to normal. How does it happen? Hypertension can damage the eyes in a number of ways: - It leads to narrowing of the arteries and can result in complete blockage, which can cause loss of vision; - It can also lead to damage to the blood vessels in the outside of the eyes, leading to bleeding. This usually clears up once the hypertension itself is treated.
