I have had mild migraines with auras for several years. Just recently - the past couple of weeks- I am having auras several times per day. Strange thing is, they only last for about 10 seconds each time and do not appear as the broken line that I am used to. The auras are almost like people are milling around in the left peripheral vision areas. Anybody else ever had anything like this.

So you're seeing things out of the corner of your eye, basically? If your auras usually have this effect and preceed a migraine, then I can understand the connection. However, it seems to me like it could also just be coincidence. Do you have any other aura symptoms and are they showing now? I know that tiny blood clots in your eye can give the appearance of something out of the corner of your eye. Might want to have those eyes checked just in case.
