What is an Ocular Migraine

They are also known as an Ophthalmic migraine.

An ocular migraine is a temporary problem with your vision that is usually, but not always, painless. You may lose some of your vision for a few minutes.
Ocular migraines usually affect only one eye at a time. Many ocular migraine sufferers complain only of fatigue after the visual disturbance.

They can be caused by eyestrain, especially computer eyestrain.

How to handle an ocular migraine:

• If you are driving, pull over until the ocular migraine passes and your vision has cleared.
• Usually resting your eyes is the best way to handle them. Continuing to strain to do computer work will only cause frustration.

A first experience of an occular migraine:

• My first had me at the eye doctor's in five minutes thinking detached retina. It's mother nature's way of telling you you're very tired and need more sleep. Genuine migraine sufferers call it "the aura," and can sometimes cut off the development of the full-blown migraine given the few minutes warning the ocular/opthalmic effect gives them. Consider yourself fortunate so long as it goes no further --- don't even try reading --- all you'll do is frustrate yourself and aggravate the condition --- take a nap, then get back to what you were doing.
