High blood pressure doesn’t directly affect the cornea or the success of a corneal transplant, but it can influence overall healing and surgical safety. At Hoopes Vision, we carefully evaluate each patient’s health before surgery. If blood pressure is well controlled with medication and regular monitoring, most patients can safely undergo a corneal transplant. However, uncontrolled hypertension may increase the risk of complications such as delayed healing or changes in eye pressure after surgery.

Our team works closely with your primary physician to ensure your blood pressure and overall health are stable before proceeding. The goal is to provide the safest, most successful outcome for your vision and long-term eye health. Call for more 801-563-0200
