Migraine options: Migraines can often be accompanied by auras or changes in vision. There are many migraine medications, if the current one is not working for you, speak with your doctor and discuss alternatives. If a headache comes on rapidly and is rapidly accompanied by blurred or changed vision it is best to immediately seek care
