[quote=Anonymous]OP, do you get the more common migraines, too? I ask because I've had two ocular migraines recently. Neither caused physical pain, but I had the same neurological/referred pain feelings that I have with regular migraines, mostly sensitivity to light. Both times the ocular migraine was triggered by a glare and a flash of bright light. My ocular migraine made me have vision in one eye, but no pain and the most recent migraine was a sustained bright spot. Each time, I had to take two extra strength Tylenol, some strong coffee for the extra caffeine and then lie down with a cold compress across my eyes in complete darkness. Duration each time was about one hour. Reg migraines for me can last 24-72 hours, so ocular migraines weren't as troublesome. Definitely report this to your doc, track/note this and work backwards to see if you can find a trigger beyond stress... excess of one food item, too much sleep, too little sleep, hormones, etc. [/quote]
