A sign in the eye that warns you of high blood pressure

If left untreated, high blood pressure increases the risk of serious problems such as heart attacks and strokes.

If the blood pressure is high, it puts additional pressure on the blood vessels, the heart and other organs such as the brain, kidneys and eyes, and there is a sign that may appear in the eye warning you of your high blood pressure.

About a third of adults in the UK suffer from high blood pressure, according to the newspaper "Express", although many are not aware of their injury because symptoms are not easily detected, or symptoms may not appear at all.

The American Heart Association says that blood spots in the eyes are more common in people with high blood pressure, and explains that high blood pressure is largely a "silent killer" without symptoms.

The association warns: "If you ignore your high blood pressure because you think a symptom or sign will alert you to the problem, you are seriously risking your life, and your blood pressure should be checked regularly.

The British Health Service advises making lifestyle changes to help reduce the chances of developing high blood pressure and to help lower blood pressure if it is already high, the most important of which are reducing the amount of salt you eat and eating a healthy diet in general, and losing weight if you suffer from increased Weight, reduce caffeine, and if you are a smoker, stop smoking.
