The terms "retinal migraine" and "ocular migraine" are often confused with "visual migraine", which is a far-more-common symptom of vision loss, resulting ...
Flammer syndrome. Flammer syndrome is a described clinical entity comprising a complex of clinical features caused mainly by dysregulation of the blood supply. It was previously known as vascular dysregulation. [ 1] It can manifest in many symptoms, such as cold hands and feet, and is often associated with low blood pressure.
After adjusting for various risk factors and education levels, researchers found that women with a higher diastolic blood pressure were 16% more likely to develop migraine. No connections between ...

Primary orthostatic hypotension is also often referred to as neurogenic orthostatic hypotension. [ 3] The drop in blood pressure may be sudden ( vasovagal orthostatic hypotension ...
Ocular hypertension. Ocular hypertension is the presence of elevated fluid pressure inside the eye ( intraocular pressure ), usually with no optic nerve damage or visual field loss. [ 1][ 2] For most individuals, the normal range of intraocular pressure is between 10 mmHg and 21 mmHg. [ 3][ 4] Elevated intraocular pressure is an important risk ...
Ophthalmic artery labeled at upper right. The ophthalmic artery ( OA) is an artery of the head. It is the first branch of the internal carotid artery distal to the cavernous sinus. Branches of the ophthalmic artery supply all the structures in the orbit around the eye, as well as some structures in the nose, face, and meninges.
Diabetes has several complications of which one is hypertension or high blood pressure. Data indicate that at least 60-80 percent of individuals whom develop diabetes will eventually develop high blood pressure. The high blood pressure is gradual at early stages and may take at least 10–15 years to fully develop.
Observational studies have linked habitual low water intake with blood pressure regulation challenges, but more data is needed to confirm this. One study published in Cureus in 2022 suggested that ...
