Eye sight and high blood pressure related?

Well for the past 2/3months I've noticed a change in my eyes, a slight blurriness in both eyes...
I went to my doctor, he did all the exams possible to determine if i had anything bad going on with me, but he told me i was fine..

he just told me that my blood pressure is considered high...

i decided to go to an ophtalmologist and she told me my vision was perfect 20/20...

I asked her "then why am i seeing things like that?"

and she told me... "when ure about to get diabetes ur eye sight may be affected"

ive been tested for diabetes and thank God i dont have it.

COULD THIS ON MY EYES BE RELATED WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE????

IS THERE SOMETHING LIKE A "CURE" FOR THIS???

I'M DAMN WORRIED..

I WILL APPRECIATE ALL THE HONEST ANSWERS, thanks All...***

Although high blood pressure can impact eyes (very seriously in fact), the fact that the ophthalmologist gave your eyes a "clean bill of health" would indicate to me that you do not have any high blood pressure related eye problem i.e. hypertensive retinopathy, etc. Now, just because you see 20/20, this by no means indicates "perfect vision." There are many different things that can interfere with the "quality" of your vision despite the fact that you can make out the 20/20 letters on the chart.

I suggest that you get another eye doctor's opinion as to why the vision appears to have a "slight blurriness." It could be a small prescription, tear quality problem, accommodative disorder, etc. etc.

Best of luck.

Sincerely,
Dr. Maller

High pressure in the eyes is known as Glaucoma.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glaucoma

The optician should have tested you for Glaucoma, although it usualy doesn't occur until mid life 40+.

The latest blood pressure tablets are excellent so go and see your family doctor. As for Glaucoma, it is also now very treatable with modern medications and surgical techniques.
