A brain disease resulting in problems with thinking,speaking , reasoning ,memory, vision and movement.
There are a number of causes of dementia. One cause, vascular dementia, can result from narrowing and blockage of the arteries  that supply blood to the brain.
It can also result from strokes caused by an interruption of blood flow to the brain.
In either cases, high blood pressure may be the culprit.
Monitoring your blood pressure is the only way to detect high blood pressure since you do not show any signs and symptoms when your pressure is high. Take action now.

Tiny delicate blood vessels supply blood to your eyes. Like other vessels, they too can be damaged by high blood pressure. High blood pressure can damage the vessels supplying blood to your retina, causing retinopathy. This condition can lead to bleeding in the eye, blurred vision and complete loss of vision.
