Hi Thanks for posting on HCM Blurred vision in a hypertensive individual may be caused by a hypertensive retinopathy or a stroke (In your case, acute ischemic attack given the short duration of symptom).I will suggest you see your Ophthalmologist for examination and investigation.You will need to have your BP under check.
