[Progress of clinical correlation research on migraine and glaucoma].

Migraine is a common primary headache disorder. The estimated annual prevalence rate of migraine in China is 9.3%. Migraine is typically involved with a series of ocular symptoms including glaucoma, visual performance tests relevant to glaucoma exhibited correlation between glaucoma and migraine. Even though migraine patients exhibit no glaucoma-related signs during intermissions of migraine attacks, the results of visual function tests (visual field, electrophysiology, ocular imaging) relevant to glaucoma still indicate abnormalities. It is fairly typical that most of the patients may neglect their ocular problems when migraine breaks out. Epidemiological data suggests an increasing prevalence of migraine patients with glaucoma, particularly normal tension glaucoma. This paper reviews and discusses the effect of migraine on the clinical assessment and diagnosis of glaucoma. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2018, 54: 224-228) .
