How To Treat Headaches, Blurred Vision And Visual Hallucinations?

Hey, For the past few months I have been going through severe headaches, which can lead to blurred vision in my left eye. These are also brought on after a short period of visual hallucinations. The characters and objects visualized, are usually people or animal, even the odd occasional ghost like creature. I also have experienced sounds and talking lightly in these episodes. Any help or advice would be greatly helpful, as it is starting to worry me and scare me.

Hello,

The features of headache, blurred vision and visual hallucinations are part of possible migraine disorder most likely. Kindly get an examination with your primary care for best diagnosis and care, follow basic guidelines till that time period:
- Wear goggles with anti-glare properties when going outside
- Avoid triggers as stress, anxiety, over exertion, certain foods (as chocolates trigger)
- Maintain hydration with plenty of liquids
- Acetaminophen tablet 3 times a day after meals
- Specific molecule as ergotamine or others need clinician approach and discussion
- Meditations and YOGA do prove best result giving therapies over a period of time
