Well this is a twofold answer because pressure itself does not mean anything when it comes to wind but rather pressure gradient or how fast the pressure drops over a given area. The faster the pressure drops over a small area the stronger the wind is forced to blow.Now lets take 2 examples here:
atmospheric pressure 915 mb
pressure drop: 25 mb
Distance: 100 miles
pressure drop/mile = 1/4 mb
atmospheric pressure: 990 mb
pressure drop: 25 mb
Distance: 100 miles
pressure drop/mile = 1/4 mb
in these 2 situations the wind would blow the same speed. However like most situations the standard air pressure outside of the system would be around the same pressure or around 1010 mb so if we have the same 2 storms again but one of the storms is much larger then the other storm here is the result:
atmospheric pressure 915 mb
pressure drop: 95 mb
Distance: 380 miles
pressure drop/mile = 1/4 mb
atmospheric pressure: 990 mb
pressure drop: 20 mb
Distance: 80 miles
pressure drop/mile = 1/4 mb
Again the wind speed would be the same since we are still falling at 1/4 mb per mile. So atmospheric pressure, storm size, surrounding air pressure, and other factors all come into play here... however if you had 2 of the same sized storms in the same atmospheric conditions but one had a pressure of 915 mb and the other had an air pressure of 990 mb the one with the 915 would have a higher wind speed due to a higher pressure gradient.

What is hurricane pressure?
The barometric pressure of the air at the center, or eye, of the hurricane. Some of the lowest barometric pressures ever recorded have occured in the eyes of hurricanes. The lowest barometric pressure ever recorded on earth was recorded at the center of the "Labor Day Hurricane" of 1935 which struck the Florida Keys.
When was Hurricane Eyes created?
Hurricane Eyes was created on 1987-08-10.
What is the diameter of the eye of a hurricane?
It varies widely. Some of the smallest eyes are around two to three miles wide. A normal size eye is about 15 to 30 miles wide. A very large eye can be over 60 miles wide. Generally the stronger the hurricane the smaller the eye.
Does the hurricane's evil eye exist?
Hurricanes have eyes. But it is doubtful that the eye of a hurricane is evil.
What do you observe if you were in the eyes of a hurricane?
calm or very little wind
How can you keep your eyes healthy?
if you get some eye drops your eyes will becom more stronger and healther
Why there is high pressure in hurricane's eye?
There isn't. The eye of a hurricane is an area of low pressure. In fact, the lowest sea level pressure occur in the eyes of extremely intense hurricanes. A hurricane is itself a strong low pressure system. Air rises and creates a pressure deficit. This is enhanced by the rapid rotation of the storm.

Why is NaC1 in eye drops?
To clean the eyes.
Does applying drops of clear black tea on eyes make the eyes whiter?
no
What is a good way to get antibiotic eye drops into a screaming 2 year old?
There are various methods to get antibiotic eye drops into a screaming two year old child. One good method is to have the child close their eyes and put the drop in the corners of the eyes. When the child opens their eyes, the drops will go into their eyes.
What if you only have pink eye in one eye do you just put drops in that eye or both eyes?
It's usually best to put the drops in both eyes. If you accidentally infect the other eye, which is very common, then using the drops in both eyes will prevent an infection in the other eye.
Are mydriatic drops medication placed into the eyes in the form of eye drops that produce temporary paralysis?
True
