I doubt it. I’ve described the issue to multiple eye doctors, none of whom mentioned this. It’s literally a psychedelic looking jagged line in my vision (which I can see with either of my eyes closed, superimposed over my vision). I’d think if it were an eye issue directly it only affect one or the other (or if both, it would be discernible which one is flaring up).
During an episode I usually first notice it as it is entering my focal region and interfering with reading. Then it sort of moves across my field of vision until it’s in my peripheral, and then goes away altogether.
What i saw during the eye migraine when closing my eyes was jittery jagged short bright lines, together forming a half moon. When i looked that up on the internet back then, it was explained as symptoms of 'eye migraine' and i believe it is an inflammation of the visual nerve. The disappearing numbers on the clock were quite scary, that is why i remember.
