I consulted doc for catract operation .They are asking me to reduce bp inorder to carry out catract operation.i am having bp of 180 .can u please clarify it .

Need to cut out animal fats and do 1 - 2 hours of cardio a day. High blood pressure is probably raising your IOP - Intra Ocular Eye Pressure which means there is a danger of excess bleeding if they operate presumably ... Google it, ring up the hospital for afvice ...

Yes, many hospitals want your BP to be below 150/90 with the 90 (diastolic) being the most important.

There are safe medications to do this. See your doctor. 180 is pretty high, this should be controlled.

Simple answer - no. Unless you are consuming vast quantities of salt every day, bags of sugar, have a BMI of 40+, morbidly obese and diabetic.  Go and get medication.
