Hi
Welcome to Health care Magic.
I am Dr. Shama and I will be answering your question.
I reviewed your history.
The complaints of headache, blurred vision, loss of peripheral vision, nausea, double vision suggest a probable acute episode of migraine.
If the symptoms resolve completely and recur it confirms the diagnosis.
I would like to treat this condition by the use of analgesic drugs in the acute episode.
If the symptoms recur then prophylactic drugs like flunarizine are indicated.
Do consult your doctor for examination and prescription of drugs.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Please do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
