I have an appointment on monday with Opthalmologist,should I still go and he can prescribe above.they said they will be dialating my eyes.
Also because i am having this happen to me everyday for two weeks,is it safe to assume that Im having a migraine everyday.

Brief Answer:
Migraine can occur daily but the diagnosis needs to be confirmed.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thank you for the follow up question.
Migraine can occur daily.
Your ophthalmologist will do examination to rule out refractive errors and do fundoscopy to rule out neurological causes.
You can take any of the analgesic tablets like aceclofenac for pain relief.
If the diagnosis of migraine is confirmed then your doctor will prescribe other tablets like flunarizine.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination to rule out eye conditions.
