A member asked:
Six months my bp meds were not effective. bp was 155/90 or so. finally under control with norvasc (amlodipine) added. 116/60 now. can this be cause of rubeosis iridis diagnosis? all other tests are negative.

Unusual: If that is only as high as your blood pressure was it would be an unusual association and you do not mention anything about diabetes, a much mor common association.

Not related: I'm glad that for your improved blood pressure but rubeosis iridis would not cause better control of blood pressure. Continue your meds and exercise. Still avoid excessive sodium and caffeine.
