What Causes Double Vision While Having High BP?

Thank you.I have brother who has high blood pressure problems and smokes at least a pack a day and has a drinking problem. My guess is 12 or more beers in day. He went 5 days without smoking or drinking this past week and does not feel well at all. He has been having double vision problems before quitting and during this week. My question is, should he get medical attention now and if so what can they do. Thanks. Concerned brother.
