Patient's question:
Father is sixty years old this year and has high blood pressure. He pays great attention to diet and rest. He also exercises regularly, and his blood pressure has always been well-controlled. However, he still experiences episodes sometimes, with occasional bleeding in the eyes. I would like to ask if bleeding in the eyes due to high blood pressure is serious and whether medical treatment in the hospital is necessary?Doctor's answer:
High blood pressure with retinal bleeding may indicate that the condition has been present for a relatively long time, and poor blood pressure control in daily life can lead to the recurrence of many complications. Retinal bleeding is relatively a serious condition, and in severe cases, it may lead to deafness. Therefore, in such situations, it is essential to seek medical diagnosis at the hospital and pay close attention to controlling blood pressure regularly.
