The effects of systemic hypertension on the posterior segment of the eye are discussed under the headings of hypertensive choroidopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, and hypertensive optic disc edema. The sympathetic nervous control and autoregulatory mechanisms of the retinal and choroidal vasculatures are briefly reviewed. In hypertensive choroidopathy focal occlusion of choriocapillaris leads to necrosis of retinal pigment epithelium (Elschnig spots). Hypertensive retinopathy is described in vasoconstrictive, exudative, and sclerotic phases, followed by complications of the sclerotic phase. Hypertensive optic disc edema is influenced by the blood supply and extracellular tissue fluid pressure of the optic nervehead. In baboons with hypertensive disc edema, accumulation of axoplasmic components is observed in the optic nervehead.
Purpose-to study the fundus findings in patients of malignant hypertension. Methods-This was a prospective observational study that involved 50 eyes of 25 patients with malignant hypertension complaining of diminution of vision. Complete ophthalmic examination was done in diffuse light followed by direct opthalmoscopic examination and optical coherence tomography. Results-There were 14 females and 11 males .Fundus findings in patients of malignant hypertension include arteriolar narrowing in all the patients followed by cotton wool spots in 86% patients , flame shaped haemorrhages in 62% patients, hard exudates in 58% patients, disc edema in 56%patients and disc haemorrhage in 12% patients. Optical coherence tomography findings included macular edema (central macular thickness > 300 μm), irregularly reflective regions, retinal nerve fiber layer thickening, subretinal fluid (SRF), intraretinal fluid, and intraretinal hyperreflective dots.. Conclusion-All the patients with hypertensive retinopathy had poor vision with fundus findings like arteriolar narrowing, cotton wool spots, hard exudates, flame shaped haemorrhages, disc edema and disc haemorrhage. OCT findings include macular edema , retinal nerve fiber layer thickening, subretinal fluid and intraretinal fluid.
