Currently, there is little understanding of the causes of Visual Snow (VS) and the relationship between VS and migraine. As such, more research needs to be conducted to better understand the underlying mechanisms of these conditions.
A large portion of the brain is involved in vision and controlling the movement of the eyes. Other research has shown that simple eye movement tests and visual perception tasks can give important information about the mechanisms underlying neurological conditions.
What we want to find out
We wish to investigate whether differences in performance on eye movement and visual perception tests can account for the symptoms of VS and the differences in symptomology between VS and migraine.
