Carotid artery stenosis (CAS) is one of the most common macrovascular complications of hypertension. The ophthalmic artery springs from the internal carotid artery; however, the effect of CAS on ocular microcirculation has not been quantified in hypertension patients. This study aimed to quantify ocular microcirculation metrics in hypertension with CAS (HCAS) patients and to explore the relationship between micro- and macroangiopathy in hypertension.
