Can High Blood Pressure Cause Vision Problems?

my son is 18 and his vision is bothering him - he says there are blotches. His bp is 134/99. It happened a couple of months ago and we carried him to the high foundation where they said his eyesight was fine. He is concerned that something is still wrong with his eyes but I believe it is caused by the blood pressure. His grandmother and I (his dad) both have high blood pressure problems. Any help?
