You can eat hawthorn slices if you have retinal hemorrhage, as it will not worsen the condition. However, it should be noted that retinal hemorrhage is an independent disease but often associated with various eye disorders or systemic diseases, commonly seen in conditions such as hypertension, retinopathy, and diabetes. Even mild retinal hemorrhage can severely affect vision. Therefore, it is essential to promptly visit a hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive appropriate treatment to prevent the condition from worsening.
