[Ophthalmic migraine].

Ophthalmic migraine is a particular form of essential vascular headache, which is determined by modification of the vascular tonus at the level of intracranial vessels, especially at the level of occipital cortex. The paper presents the case of a 41-year-old male patient with typical symptoms of ophthalmic migraine which started two years ago. The ocular examination of both eyes is normal. The clinical and paraclinical investigation did not reveal any biological and neuroendocrine dysfunction.
