Abstract:
Transient visual phenomena in later life due to a visual aura in migraine are not uncommon and can also occur without headache. This migraine with aura is not always recognized as such. Since visual phenomena can also have a variety of other causes, they can present a diagnostic dilemma in both primary and secondary care. Visual aura phenomena have various and often complex manifestations and are usually observed binocularly. In case of transient visual phenomena, the patient's history is of utmost importance to determine whether there is a mono- or binocular cause of the complaints. Timely recognition of visual phenomena in the context of migraine can prevent unnecessary diagnostics and treatments.
