High Blood Pressure

People with HBP suffer a lot of the same things that diabetics have to endure.  Their vision can fluctuate as their pressure goes up and down during the day.  This causes a person to have a prescription that varies as their pressure varies.  Which is the same thing that can happen to a diabetic.  This scenario can alert the optometrist to a potential problem even when the patient feels fine and just thinks they need a change in their glasses.  Keeping your pressure stable, following your doctor’s advice, and taking your medication can help your eyes stay healthy, and avoid other treatment in the future.
