What Is an Ocular Migraine?
When it first occurs, it can be mildly disconcerting or even frightening. Patterns of shimmering zigzag lines or tremulous flashing spots may appear in your vision, making simple tasks difficult. Starting out small, the obscured area may grow until you want to stop whatever you are doing and just close your eyes.
Although you may not have any pain, you may be experiencing an ocular migraine. Knowing more about this condition will help you to better understand what is happening, what risks may be involved, how often they may occur, and what steps you can take to prevent the next one.
