You can first visit your doctor and ask him/her to measure your blood pressure. If you have increased blood pressure, you are under greater risk of getting stroke. Blurry vision could be stress related but it seems that your pre-existing conditions are responsible for this experience. You can then visit an ophthalmologist to exclude eye disorder(s).
