What Causes Visual Disturbances?

My 31 year old daughter is experiencing visual issues that she has never experienced before today. It is the same as when a flash of light occurs and you cannot see in certain areas for a while. It happened several hours ago today and lasted about a half hour, and is happening now again for about the past hour. She also suffers with migraines occasionally but has never had visual disturbances with a migraine and does not have a migraine or other pain now.
