Blurry Vision
Lower blood pressure can cause some people to have blurry vision. Individuals with blurred vision may have a diminished field of view or have difficulty making out the details of their environment. Problems with vision may occur in people with hypotension shortly before fainting.
Laying down with the head slightly elevated can help restore vision and normalize blood pressure. If blurry vision persists, it could indicate a secondary health problem aside from hypotension, including high blood pressure, stroke or injury to the brain.
