Additional terms include ocular migraine, anterior visualpathway migraine, and ophthalmic migraine. This condition http://imigraine.net/migraine/retinal.html

The IHS code is 1.4 for retinal migraine. The exact genetic predisposition to this subtype of migraine headache is unknown. The familial occurrence is similar to that expected in all patients with migraine preceded by visual aura, with an estimated 25% positive familial history. Retinal migraine is expected to be more common in women than men, which is true of migraine headaches in general, but this also has not be documented. One may consider two forms of anterior visual pathway migraine: (1) transient monocular blindness and (2) permanent unilateral visual loss, a much less common occurrence. Figure 11. Retinal migraine.

Ocular Migraines The classic migraine is a severe headache, which in some instances may be accompanied by nausea. Ocular migraines are visual disturbances in which visual images look gray or have a wavy appearance. They almost always occur in only one eye. Other common symptoms are loss of vision, particularly in one eye, and increased sensitivity to bright lights. The visual distortion, when it occurs, normally starts in central vision and then moves off to one side. The ocular migraine can occur either in conjunction with the common migraine or without the corresponding headache. Generally, when it accompanies the common migraine, the visual disturbances happen before the onset of headache symptoms. In younger people with common migraine, it is typical for the ocular migraines to also occur. As people age, it becomes more common to experience ocular migraines without headache symptoms. In general there is no serious complications caused by ocular migraine. Treatment, in most instances, is not necessary unless the ocular migraine is linked to the common migraine.

Do You Think You Are Seeing Things? Visual Flashes, Floaters, and Migraine Auras Most of us occasionally note small gray or black blurred strings , cobwebs , or dust specks drifting across our vision .These are vitreous floaters ; although annoying , occasional floaters are generally of little significance. The vitreous jelly is the transparent , sticky , jelly-like substance that takes up much of the volume of the eyeball . It is more than 99 % water , but is kept in a gel state because of the presence of hyaluronic acid and collagen fibrils .The vitreous acts as a structural cushion which maintains the shape of the eyeball , but which is also optically clear , allowing light to pass through the inside of the eye to the retina . As we age, the gel partially liquefies , and the vitreous collagen fibrils form condensed aggregates which cast shadows on the retina . These floaters move around in the liquid vitreous with natural eyeball movement. While collagen fibrils give rise to whip-like floaters , small speck-like floaters represent individual red blood cells or epithelial cell debris in the vitreous . With further liquefaction and shrinkage of the vitreous , increasing numbers of floaters may suddenly develop . The collapse of the vitreous is a natural aging process called a '

Addresses: - Select please - Opticians Ophthalmologists Industry Cosmetic surgery Topical Eyes Glasses Sunglasses ... Editorial info Ophthalmic Migraine While the word “migraine” conjures up thoughts of excruciating headaches (and rightfully so), an ophthalmic or ocular migraine is often unaccompanied by any pain. It is, however, a variety of migraine. Its hallmark is a set of unique visual disturbances. First you might notice a shimmering around the periphery of your vision. This flickering progresses inward, often with jagged edges. The aura continues to shut in, closing off or blurring your side vision. Interestingly enough, you can see the aura even with your eyes closed. Eventually the disturbance begins to open back up until it is gone. Most episodes last 10 to 20 minutes, with full visual recovery. An ocular migraine may occur in one eye or both. It has been suggested that ocular migraine may be triggered by stress, certain foods, flashing lights, and hormonal changes. The visual display is not caused by anything in the eye per se, but rather by disturbances in the vasculature of the brain (as are migraine headaches). No treatment is generally given unless the patient begins to experience headaches during or after the aura. Jan Ledford, COMT

Question: I frequently have migraine headaches, and a friend suggested that they might be ocular migraines. What are ocular migraines? Answer: Ocular migraines, which are also known as ophthalmic migraines, are very common. The typical ocular migraine has visual symptoms and may or may not be followed by a headache. If a headache does follow the visual symptoms, it is called a migraine headache. The exact cause of ocular migraines is unknown. Some researchers have suggested that vascular spasms that cause classic migraines also cause ocular migraines; spasms may affect the blood supply to the vision center in the brain. Food additives, hormonal fluctuations, stress and certain odors may also trigger these migraines. Ocular migraines are common in young people who also experience classic migraines. In addition, as people age they may begin to experience ocular migraines without headaches. During an ocular migraine, images may appear to be gray or light may appear to be pale pastel colors. Ocular migraines can produce a variety of visual disturbances including flashing lights, jagged lines, blind spots, “heat waves”, and sparkling lights.

36. Migraine Headache Types: Classic, Common, And Others Other Migraine Headache Types Ocular During an ocular migraine, the blood vesselsof the eyes, rather than those of the skull or brainstem, spasm and instead http://www.migraine-facts.com/html/migraine_types.php3

Migraine Headache Types: Classic, Common, and Others While migraines come in several forms, some are more common than others. Below you'll find descriptions of the two major headache types, as well as some of the lesser-known conditions. The Classic Type Migraine with aura is often referred to as "classic." Less than half an hour before the actual pain begins, the individual experiences "aura." Aura usually involves visual sensory illusions, such as jagged bands of light obscuring vision, or a shimmering light around the edges of objects. Other senses, such as hearing and smell, may also be affected. The Common Type Common migraines are simply those that present without aura. Only about twenty percent of sufferers experience aura. Most people bypass the aura phase. Rebound Headaches Common among migraine sufferers, rebound headaches occur when pain medication is overused. Overuse causes the body to become resistant to the medication, so to be effective larger doses are required, leading to even further resistance. The result is often more frequent headaches or a worsening of existing symptoms. Rebound headaches are possible if medication for treatment or prevention of headaches is used three or more times a week. Other Migraine Headache Types Ocular During an ocular migraine, the blood vessels of the eyes, rather than those of the skull or brainstem, spasm and instead of pain, the sufferer becomes aware of lights in the peripheral vision. Often jagged and pastel colored in nature, the light disturbance intensifies, and enlarges until it is centered in the eye. Ocular migraines typically fade away after about fifteen to twenty minutes. Some people report a mild headache after this experience, while others simply feel fatigued.

38. Absolute Vision Care ocular migraine this visual disorder is becoming more common. Muchlike the concept of some migraine headaches being caused by http://www.absolutevisioncare.com/ocular.htm

Nearsightedness - (myopia) often defined as "my distance is blurred". This disorder is the result of an eye that is longer, or intraocular lens that is too strong, creating the need for a spectacle lens or contact lens to focus light correctly on the back of the eye. This allows for clear vision. Farsightedness (hyperopia) often defined as "my near vision is blurred". This disorder is the result of an eye that is shorter or an intraocular lens that is too weak, creating the need for a spectacle lens or contact lens to focus light correctly on the back of the eye. This allows for clear vision Presbyopia - a condition where the muscles of the eyes weaken and the lens of the eye hardens leading to problems focusing up close. Also referred to as the "age 40, my arms are too short" syndrome. Glasses or contacts may be used to help focus reading and near tasks better. Presbyopia does not lead to vision loss, it is a normal aging change that results in blurred vision and a lot of frustration. Astigmatism - a condition where the front of the eye or cornea is not perfectly round, but is more oblong or football shaped. This requires a spectacle lens or contact lens for clear vision
