Artwork of scotoma visual disturbance in migraine
Scotoma in migraine. Abstract illustration of a migraine headache and associated visual disturbance, or " scotoma". Migraines are recurrent throbbing headaches that characteristically affect one side of the head. In some sufferers a visual disturbance called a scotoma occurs just before the attack. This typically appears as a slowly expanding area of blindness surrounded by an irregular, sparkling edge that occupies up to half the visual field. The scotoma clears up after about 20 minutes and is followed by a severe, one- sided headache accompanied by nausea and vomiting. The best therapy is prevention by avoiding any known triggers

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork beautifully captures the visual disturbance known as scotoma in migraine. Migraines are more than just headaches; they are debilitating episodes that affect one side of the head and can be accompanied by various symptoms. Just before an attack, some sufferers experience a unique visual disruption called scotoma, which is depicted here in abstract form. The scotoma appears as a slowly expanding area of blindness, surrounded by a mesmerizingly irregular and sparkling edge. It engulfs up to half of the visual field, causing discomfort and disarray for those experiencing it. However, this unsettling phenomenon typically lasts only about 20 minutes before fading away. Unfortunately, the relief is short-lived as it gives way to an excruciating one-sided headache accompanied by nausea and vomiting. Managing migraines involves not only treating these painful symptoms but also preventing their occurrence altogether. The most effective approach lies in identifying triggers specific to each individual and avoiding them proactively. This thought-provoking print serves as a reminder of the complex nature of migraines and highlights the importance of understanding their intricacies for both patients and healthcare professionals alike. Through artful representation, Science Photo Library invites us into the world of migraine sufferers while shedding light on this often misunderstood condition.
