Two types of migraines

My question is: is it normal to be suffering from two types of migraines? I get the classic migraine with auras and just recently in the last few months my eyes will spasm and I'll start to see these really fine silver lines flying all over that have been diagnosed as "ocular" migraines; these are new to me. I've never had an MRI done to my head and was maybe Persuing but just wanted some opinions before so.

Migraines have been linked to food allergies, so you could get tested for gluten, nuts, and dairy.

Yes, my migraine symptoms have changed over the years.  As a kid I just had headache, nausea and vomiting with sensitivity to smells and light.  As an adult I rarely get the headache, but get the light show and blind spot.
