What Does A 111/67 BP And Splinter Hemm In Eyes Indicate?

Hi, I am 45 years old, 127 lbs, 5'2" and eat well and workout 4-5 days per week. My blood pressure last check was 111/67. On a routine eye exam last week my eye doc informed me I had a splinter hemm. in the lt. eye. I am scheduled to get it checked in a few weeks by another doc, but am wondering if it should be sooner. Do I need to worry or wait and see?
