Description
The visual system plays a prominent role in migraine headache, especially migraine with aura. Anatomical and functional studies in migraine are showing an increasing role linking the visual system to migraine and its multiple and complex clinical expressions. Recent research on photophobia highlights the progress of our understanding of these relationships. This review overviews a practicing neurologist’s view of some of the roles of the visual system in migraine and how a clinical understanding of this relationship is enhanced by recent research and discovery in this in this important area.
