It happens in both eyes and doesn't go away when I close my eyes. Sound a bit familiar?dino Wrote:Strokes?!?!?! That doesn't sound good.
I found out I also have "optic migraines" Doesn't hurt at all but makes things look really trippy for about 20-30 minutes.
It's basically where the optic nerve constricts and causes a "blind spot" for 20-30 minutes. I wonder if we are experiencing the same symptoms and our optometrists just call it different things. Is your "trippy looking" like a skewed fat lightening bolt in the middle of your vision of one or both eyes?
I did a bit of lookin up and here's what I found.
