Hypertension quietly damages your eyes: learn how to catch it quickly

Hypertension quietly damages the eyes and leads to vision loss in many Indians. Initial identification and regular check-ups can prevent serious complications.

One of the most common diseases that carry a high burden among the Indian population is high blood pressure. This non-communicable disease, which is known to show no symptoms, is therefore named ‘The Silent Killer’, which develops under extremely severe conditions.

Hypertension occurs when blood force is very high against the artery wall. For this, the heart has to work hard to pump blood.

When no treatment is given, high blood pressure can damage the blood vessels throughout the body. In addition to health problems such as heart disease, stroke and kidney disease, high blood pressure can also damage your vision.

“We know that hypertension affects the heart, but what we often do not realize is that it can quietly damage the eyes and even leads to blindness if left untreated.”

“In India, about 22.6% of the population has high blood pressure. It risks a large part of the population for serious vision problems. Thankfully we now have advanced, non-invasive equipment like Octa and October EDI that help us detect initial damage in the retina and optic nervous due to high blood pressure.”

How high blood pressure affects your eyes

When high blood pressure damages small and delicate blood vessels that lead the blood to the eyes. It can lead to:

Retinopathy: This is a damage to the retina, the part of the eye that feels light. It can cause blurred vision, eye bleeding, or complete vision loss. People with both diabetes and high blood pressure are even at greater risk.

Coroidopathy: High blood pressure can create a fluid under the retina, causing distorted vision or scary that worsens the vision.

Optic neuropathy: If blood flow in the optic nerve (which send visual signal to the brain) is blocked, it can cause nerve damage, bleeding inside the eye and permanent vision loss.

How to hold it quickly

Since hypertension often shows no initial symptoms, regular health check -up is required.

Dr. According to Goyal, ophthalmology now uses trials such as OCT (optical chain tomography) and octa (optical chain tomography angiography) to detect symptoms of blood flow and initial eye damage, even before the symptoms appear.

These tests are quick, painless and non-invasive. Therefore, initial detection is important. You can reduce your risk of eye damage from high blood pressure:

  • Your eyes are checking regularly, especially if you have high blood pressure
  • Eating a balanced diet in salt
  • Exercise
  • managing stress
  • Taking the prescribed medicine to control your blood pressure

Hypertension may be silent, but it should not have effects. With regular screening and a healthy lifestyle, vision loss from high blood pressure can often be prevented.
