A member asked:

Does anyone treat visual distortions during aura or migraine headaches?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Aura management: I would imagine that treating the migraine headaches would result in diminishing visual distortions.

Dr Rosenfeld agreed

Yes: You can have treatment with a cryotron. Google it to find if anyone in your area has one, or get to someone who does, beforehand to prevent it..
