The number of patients with ophthalmic migraine is steadily increasing. The symptoms of their attacks are dominated by typical visual aura, followed by major or minor headache. The authors present the experience of three physicians who observed the symptoms on themselves. The first one has suffered from the disease already for fifty years, the second and third one 25 years each. In the discussion the authors deal with the differential diagnosis of the disease and its possible treatment.
