I have had OCT scan many times and fortunately these do not trigger migraine or aura in my case or at least - I can say I was not aware of. OCT scans are vital to monitor our eye health and even if it does trigger a migraine aura, I'll accept it.

Thankyou I have had mine this morning and was suprised how long the scan took was thinking it was just going to be a quick flash. Anyhow no migraine aura but a referral to the hospital. Thanks for your reply x
