See a doctor : Sometimes migraines can present with eye symptoms and feeling ill but so can a number of other conditions including a few that may be serious. Suggest see a doctor for an examination and diagnosis

Patterns: Do you ever get headaches with these weird patterns you see? Could be an ophthalmic migraine. Consult with us to determine if floaters, migraine, or something else.
