CACERES TOLEDO, María; LA O LOZANO, Yarlins; GONZALEZ ESPINOSA, Luis  y  OLIVERA LEAL, Irma R. Ophthalmological study of migraine with visual aura. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2005, vol.18, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.

In the migraine with visual aura, headache is preceded by the appearance of sparkling scotomas and the loss of vision in half of the visual field, among other symptoms. A group of patients suffering from migraine with visual aura was studied aimed at determining the ophthalmological alterations and the refraction defects appearing in these cases and which of them may worsen their crises. A complete ophthalmological study was conducted in 30 patients with this diagnosis that included refraction, the measurement of the proximal point of convergence and the amplitude of fusion. It is considered that the reduction of the amplitude of fusion may be a precipitating factor in the emergence of migraine crises

Palabras clave : Migraine with visual aura; amplitude of fusion.
