🩸👀 I have a bloodshot eye and high blood pressure! What should I do?

🩸👀 Ocular bleeding (subconjunctival hemorrhage) is a common reason for consultation associated with high blood pressure, even as a direct referral to our cardiovascular office.

📌 Am I experiencing eye bleeding because I have hypertension or do I have hypertension because my eye is bleeding 👀?

💡Summarized in 4 messages:
- First of all, hypertension is not a cause of ocular bleeding. Generally, it's due to the rupture of small vessels in the sclera (the white part of the eye), with the most common reason being direct or spontaneous trauma.
- Blood pressure rises due to any physical or psychological stress, so the anxiety/fear caused by the bleeding🩸 triggers a response that increases blood pressure.
- First treat the bleeding with an ophthalmologist and not the hypertension.
- Monitor your blood pressure at home afterwards to know your values and consult your cardiologist. Do not modify your medication (if you are taking any) until you know your true values under appropriate conditions.
