Abstract

A 27-year-old woman reports having had 3 episodes of transient “darkening” of vision in her right eye. Each episode lasted 3 to 5 minutes without any associated symptoms. Her general health is excellent; her only medication is an oral contraceptive. She has no history of migraine. Her examination, including visual fields, is entirely normal. What evaluation and therapy should be undertaken?.
