Question : I just had a bad headache on the right side of my head. I laid down for a while and when I got up my right eye has blurry vision. I frequently get migraines, but this was not as severe as those.

Possibly migraine

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to HCM.
Hi, I am Dr Mittal. I have read your message. I think I can help you with your problem.

I think the symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a migraine only.
The visual symptoms are known to occur in migraine.

I understand that this is not your usual symptom but it does occur in migraine.
The other possibility is a possible TIA or small stroke.

I think it would be better to test with a MRI BRAIN and CV DOPPLER when possible.

In case you're having migraine, there are very frequent medicines for migraine prophylaxis are available.

I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem.

Best of luck.
Dr Mittal
