Hypertensive retinopathy and choroidopathy in a cat
The underlying cause of the systemic hypertension could not be determined.
The blood pressure was lowered successfully with the oral application of the L-type calcium channel blocker amlodipine besylate.
The cat subsequently regained vision. The improvement in retinal function was documented using electroretinography.
