What Could Cause A Tunnel Vision With Spots With A Headache?

Tunnel Vision
My wife is having tunnel vision with spots and is starting to get a headache. This occasionally happens. It is sometimes accompanied by mild confusion and sluggish behavior.

About a year ago she had a cat scan and nothing showed up.

What could this be?

Hello
It seems from the history that your wife is having sudden tunnel vision with blurring of vision and headache.
These symptoms indicate transient ischaemic attack.
The common causes for it are carotid artery diseases, hyootension, hyoovolemia....
Hence this requires evaluation to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.


Thank you
