Retinal migraine: caught in the act
Statistics from Altmetric.com
A 22 year old male dancer presented via his optometrist following an episode of transient visual loss in his left eye. He described a slow blurring and darkening of the vision of the left eye with a similarly gradual return to normal, the whole episode lasting 10 minutes. He described similar episodes every 2–3 months for the previous 3 years with no associated migrainous aura or headache, and exercise was not a trigger. Figure 1 shows images taken before, during, and 10 minutes after his presenting episode (see figure legend for description).
