Overview
Arterial hypertension is a serious health problem. Decompensation of blood pressure may cause many ocular complications. We present three case reports of men with decompensated blood pressure and associated ocular complications. Successful compensation of blood pressure leads to objective improvement of fundus changes and vision.
Key words:
arterial hypertension, hypertonic angiopathy, retinopathy, neuropathy
