Vision Migraine - The Difference

In case of migraine causing visionary impairment, the source of problem or disturbance is the brain. On the other hand, in case of optical migraine the retinal blood vessels cause all the problems. According to eye specialists, the problem lies in the brain and not in the eyesight.

Forehead, temples, ear, jaw and areas around the eye are the specific points where a patient can easily feel the pain of vision migraine. This particular migraine variety starts at one particular point and then spreads to all directions. The pain is almost always unbearable and can disrupt the normal flow of life.
