A computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable medium, for determining a level of hypertension of a person. Image data defining a retinal image of a retina of the person that has been captured by a retinal imaging system is acquired. Processing the image data is performed to identify a plurality of vessel segments present in the retinal image. Determining is performed of respective widths of vessel segments of at least a subset of the plurality of vessel segments present in the retinal image. Calculating, as a vascular summary metric, at least one average value or median value of the determined widths of the vessel segments present in the retinal image, is performed to determine a level of hypertension by which the person has been affected.
