Brief Answer:
Occasionaly strabismus

Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for asking HCM,

I will try to explain. Strabismuss is a condition in which both eyes do not look at the same place at the same time. It occurs when an eye turns in, out, up or down and is usually caused by poor eye muscle control. If it appears only sometime, it is called intermittent strabismus or alternating strabismus. With intermittent strabismus, the eye turn might be observed only occasionally, such as during stressful situations or when the person is ill.

I hope I helped you with this question.

Brief Answer:
there is a connection

Detailed Answer:
hello and thank you for this new query.

There is a connection between migraine and strabismus, especially when strabismus is not treated properly.
But you have to know that migraine is a type of headache which affects one half of the head, is pulsating in nature, and lasts from 2 to 72 hours. Associated symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light, sound, or smell. The pain is generally made worse by physical activity.
But definitely, intermittent strabismus can be a migraine trigger.
