Your blood pressure will be carefully tested using a digital BP
tester, which is fast, accurate and comfortable to use. Why is it
important to do a blood pressure test? Simply because when there
is a high blood pressure problem that is not detected, or is out
of control, this affects the blood vessels at the back of the eyes
in addition to the rest of the body. This can lead to a condition
called Ocular Hypertension which can cause the blood vessels in
the eyes to rupture and burst causing bleeding (haemorrhages) behind
the eyes and disruption or loss of vision. |
