Retinal Migraine: Retinal migraine (also known as ophthalmic migraine, visual migraine and ocular migraine) is a retinal disease often accompanied by migraine headache and typically affects only one eye. It is caused by an infarct or vascular spasm (spasm of the blood vessel) in or behind the affected eye. I would suggest a clinical evaluation along with a comprehensive dilated eye exam by an Ophthalmologist.
