5. Variations of an Ocular Migraine

In general, there are two types of an ocular migraine: migraine with an aura and Retinal migraine. An aura migraine can impair the victim's vision and include symptoms like blind spots, visual disturbances like stars or patterns, and flashes of light. It can also affect the central nervous system, causing impairment of motor skills and speech. A retinal migraine occurs in only one eye and usually is more severe in how it affects the vision. Victims of this type of an ocular migraine often lose their vision or see twinkling lights.
