I can empathize with the visual distortions in a big way. It's strange but I have developed visual aura only in the last 5 years though I have been migraining 12 years now!
I catch door knobs and edge of the microwave with my teacup as I cannot make out margins during an aura. So I keep out of driving during the time.
Last week, as I awoke and went to freshen up into the toilet, I was entertained with a 2-5 minutes of laser show going on right before my eyes. From where I was, I could neither see the toilet door nor the washbasin - just the darn high resolution rays in colors.
On hindsight, some entertainment that was and it pepped up the morning and got rid of the dullness;) - I had to just sit it out and wait for it to stop before I got out of the place.
But yes, if you are new to it, it can be very unnerving. It took me 2 years of monthly attacks to get used to this at some level.
