The IHS code is 1.4 for retinal migraine. (Table 5) A short description from the Headache Classification Committee is the following: repeated attacks of monocular scotoma or blindness lasting less than one hour and associated with headache. Other ocular or structural vascular disorder must be ruled out. Additional terms include: ocular migraine, anterior visual pathway migraine, and ophthalmic migraine. This condition may be broadly defined as a transient or permanent monocular visual disturbance accompanying a migraine attack or occurring in an individual with a strong history of migrainous episodes. One term applicable to all such attacks would be "ocular migraine;" however, to include optic nerve dysfunction as well, a more general phrase, ie, "anterior visual pathway migraine," may be preferable. This last phrase would include reported defects, such as ischemic papillitis, retinal hemorrhage, vitreous hemorrhage, central serous retinopathy, pigmentary changes of the retina, and optic nerve atrophy. Retinal migraine occurs more frequently than ophthalmoplegic ‘migraine.’ We estimate the frequency of strictly monocular visual phenomena occurring in conjunction with migraine to be one of 200 migraine sufferers. Frequently, however, homonymous visual field phenomena in migraineurs is incorrectly attributed to a single eye. For example, a patient with transient right homonymous hemianopia might think that the right eye is affected, because normally the right temporal hemifield is 30-40 degrees larger than the left nasal hemifield.

Headache in a variety of forms is one of the most common complaints presenting to the clinician. A new classification of headache has been proposed by the International Headache Society (IHS) (Table 1). The classification system is summarized in Table 1.

1.3 OPHTHALMOPLEGIC MIGRAINE 1.4 RETINAL MIGRAINE RETURN 1.3 OPHTHALMOPLEGIC MIGRAINE Description: Repeated attacks of headache associated with paresis of one or more ocular cranial nerves in the absence of demonstrable intracranial lesion. Other cranial nerves may be involved and the following conditions should be considered:
  • Diabetic cranial neuropathy Intracranial aneurysm/tumor Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (painful ophthalmoplegia) Acute glaucoma Ocular pseudotumor CNS infiltrative or infectious disease
NOTE: The fact that this syndrome may involve the oculomotor nerves and the ophthalmic division of the 5th nerve suggests that the anatomic localization of the lesion may be close to the cavernous sinus. Angiographic evidence of constriction of the internal carotic artery in the region of the cavernous sinus has been demonstrated in a few patients during attacks of this headache. Diagnostic Criteria:
  • At least 2 attacks fulfilling B. Headache overlapping with paresis of one or more of cranial nerves III, IV, and VI. Parasellar lesion ruled out by appropriate investigations.

    Background: Many conditions exist under the rubric of “migraine variant.” Migraine variants (MVs) generally are paroxysmal disorders, which include either headache as a prominent feature among a collection of symptoms or occurrence in individuals who have a personal or family history of migraine. MVs occur more frequently in children and adolescents than in adults; they may precede the development of more typical migraines in adulthood. MVs are less recognized, less understood, and far less common than migraines; consequently, little population-based data are available describing the incidence or prevalence of MVs. Few randomized, controlled trials exist that describe efficacious treatments for these unusual entities. Recognition of MV is important, since many respond to typical antimigraine medications. Also, the clinical presentation of MV may suggest ominous disease processes which can lead to extensive and invasive diagnostic evaluations that may not be warranted. MVs include the following:
    • Familial hemiplegic migraine
    • Basilar migraine
    • Benign coital headache
    • Ophthalmoplegic migraine
    • Retinal migraine
    • Alternating hemiplegic migraine (primarily in childhood)

    Migraine Types Abdominal Migraine
    The attacks are characterized by periodic bouts of abdominal pain lasting for about two hours. Along with the abdominal pain they may have other symptoms such as nausea and vomiting, flushing or pallor. Tests fail to reveal a cause for the pain. Occasionally there may be EEG findings suggestive of epilepsy but this is rarely related to seizures. Medications that are useful for treating migraine work to control these attacks in most children. Back To Top Basilar Migraine
    When migraine affects the circulation in back of the brain or neck, it can cause Basilar Migraine or Bickerstaff's Syndrome. It occurs most frequently in young women. Dizziness, double vision, loss of balance, confusion, slurred speech, fainting and disorientation can occur. During the acute headache, some lose consciousness. Often these patients are mistakenly thought to be intoxicated, under the influence of drugs, or suffering from other conditions. A previous history of migraine is helpful in making the diagnosis.
    Back To Top
    Complicated Migraine
    In all these forms, there seems to be an increased risk of the migraine producing permanent neurological changes which may also correlate with changes on the MRI scan like those seen in stroke. Medications such as the beta-blockers, triptans and ergots are often avoided in these types of headaches for fear of increasing the risk of stroke. Calcium blockers and anti-epileptic drugs seem to be best for prevention. Smoking, the use of hormones in menopause and birth control pills are avoided as well again to decrease the risk of long-term problems.
