for the past 2 yrs,say last time it happened was 8 months ago..i have big spots in side vishion,not in field. The left eye wasn't  there 8 months ago..anyways I have these spots all the time, its not like arua that you see with jagged lines or yellow green red colors..my left eye I see what looks like a ink spot..i see better against a white wall, and mostly when I blink, but do also see when I,m not blinking..

I have had aura without any headache...never had a migraine, that I know of..i never get any headaches',,I do get very tense....I seen my optamoglist thurs he got me right in that da..he knows this issue. Also sent me 2 yrs. ago to another doc in the big city...so he took all the tests and dilated eyes.. he did say your eyes are in great shape for 50 yrs old..no detached retina,, my eyes been fry for yrs this time said was great...doc told me if the spots not gone in 2 weeks call me...they wont be I told him. When they come there usually here awile,i will listen to him...my eyes to him was that of good..my side vision was 100%

I'm on warfarin for a pe in 2000,,i have 2 negative blood proteins, on it for life.. my inr is most the time 2.0-3.2...I did have blood pressure for many yrs.. I lost 90 pounds I was took off my  meds..

I'm asking is there anyone that has these symptoms with a diagnoses..were the spots don't go away as with a aura migraine or without.....

I would recommend you see a neuro-ophthalmologist.
