Low blood pressure and strabismus

I am waiting to have strabismus surgery with in the next six months, i have recently been prescribed medication for an unrelated illness, and one of the side effects of the medication is that it can lower your blood pressure.

My strabismus tends to be worse when i am tired, ill, or stressed so i am wondering if i get lower blood pressure will this also make my eye turn further out?

Also could having lower blood pressure effect the strabismus surgery outcome?


Thanks

Low blood pressure is almost always a blessing as it reduces the risk of heart attacks, strokes, kidney failure and eye damage (hypertensive retinopathy)..

LBP will not reduce the success rate of your strabismus surgery, will not make your strabismus worse.
