Migraine Ophthalmoplegic

**Migraine with ophthalmoplegia**

**Ophthalmoplegia** is a motor autonomic neuropathy of the nerve that causes paralysis or weakening of the muscles responsible for voluntary eye movement. This manifests itself in one of two ways: - *Ophthalmoplegia with accommodation* - a person ceases to adequately focus vision and see objects up close, but can fully see very distant objects and perceive giant objects at a distance of 40-50 meters. Residual vision may be sufficient to drive a car. The patient may have difficulty in the dark. The most common cases are large enlargements of the brain (aneurysm of the anterior communicating artery) and tumors. - *Ptosis*



Migraine ophthalmoplegia is a serious disease that is accompanied by severe headaches, diplopia (double vision), ptosis (drooping of the upper eyelid) and other symptoms. The disease usually manifests itself in young and middle-aged people. In most cases, it does not have a pronounced character, which means that it can be diagnosed immediately only in 5% of cases. It is important to note that migraine can occur in two forms: focal and regional. With ophthalmoplegia, the second option usually occurs.

The disease is chronic and has a paroxysmal nature. After an attack, weakness, dizziness, sensory disturbances, and spatial orientation disorders often develop. The causes of the disease are unclear at present. It is believed that the disease occurs against the background of a malfunction of the parts of the brain that are responsible for coordinating the movements of the body and sensory organs. Diagnostics is carried out by a neurologist. Identify migraine
