Anyone know of a way to reduce visual migraines occurrences?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Unfortunately, no: Ocular (visual) migraines do not respond to typical migraine medication. If there is a particular stressor that is known to set off the migraines, you can try to avoid it, but this is difficult to do. If the visual migraines are followed by classic migraines, see your doctor to discuss migraine medication.

Hypnosis: Hypnosis and biofeedback can help you learn to selfregulate the blood flow in the brain responsible for the migraines.
