How To Cure Hemorrhage In Left Eye When Having High Blood Pressure?

my husband needs to find a doctor. the urgent care physician has prescribed high blood pressure meds and urges him to find a regular doctor. Now his left eye is hemoragging(sp") and I am concerned for him. He has never had a doctor and knows he needs one now but is reluctant. Can I find a physician for him and make an appointment for him or must he do it himself?

Hello
It seems from the history that your husband is having hemorrhage in the eye. This is because of broken blood vessel as a result of high blood pressure. The condition is called as subconjunctival hemorrhage.
Subconjunctival hemorrhage will resolve by 3-4 weeks and no treatment is required for it. However you need to take treatment for high blood pressure.

Thank you
