Bilateral hypertensive retinopathy and choroidopathy with bullous retinal detachment was diagnosed in a 17-year-old, female spayed Domestic Short-haired cat. The underlying cause of the systemic hypertension could not be determined. The blood pressure was lowered successfully with the oral application of the L-type calcium channel blocker amlodipine besylate. The cat subsequently regained vision. The improvement in retinal function was documented using electroretinography.

Hypertensive retinopathy is the most prevalent sign of preeclampsia, and eclampsia and it needs to be addressed at the earliest opportunity. This study was intended to gauge and assess the ophthalmic artery Doppler indices such as mean enveloped velocity, the pulsatility index (PI), and the resistivity index (RI) in normotensive, preeclamptic, and eclamptic pregnancies with their respective correlations.

Multimodal imaging of the fundus provides a detailed assessment of its structures. Pathological changes in the choroid, the "retinal pigment epithelium - Bruch's membrane" complex, and the neurosensory retina, identified using fundus photography, short-wavelength autofluorescence, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography, are described as nonspecific in nature.

Diabetic retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, glaucoma, and contrast-related eye diseases are well-recognized conditions resulting from high blood pressure, rising blood glucose, and elevated eye pressure. Later-stage symptoms usually include patches of cotton wool, restricted veins in the optic nerve, and buildup of blood in the optic nerve. Severe consequences include damage of the visual nerve, and retinal artery obstruction, and possible blindness may result from these conditions.
