Everyone describes these differently but scotomas occur when parts of the visual field are blocked. Ocular migraines are accompanied by something called scintillating scotomas. My goal is to try and differentiate between flashes in peoples vision that are due to what we call an ocular or ophthalmic migraine and those that are secondary to traction from the vitreous gel inside the eye. I see patients on a daily basis that describe similar symptoms. Not all the time, but if it starts in the morning then i see the flash throughout that day, none today.Īnswer: Thanks for the great question Doris. Question: I see spot flashes in the outside corners of my eyes.
