Hello
It seems from the history that your husband is having stroke and blindness. This needs to be evaluated as stroke and other diseases which are associated with atherosclerosis are associated with increased risk for retinal vascular diseases which ca lead to loss of vision.
Hence he needs evaluation by a eye doctor for evaluation to find out the underlying disease for blindness and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
I find this answer helpful
