This review highlights that early recognition of hypertensive retinopathy remains an important step in risk stratification for hypertensive patients.
Encourages retinal evaluation during hypertension assessment; extends observational data but leaves causal outcome impact open.
Hypertension is associated with cardiovascular risk and systemic target organ damage. Retinopathy is considered one of the indicators of target organ damage. This review focuses on recent studies on hypertensive retinopathy and their implications for clinical care. Early recognition of hypertensive retinopathy signs remains an important step in the risk stratification of hypertensive patients.
