Good thing it wasn't a seizure then !

Explain the buzzing headache.

Both eyes or one ?

Primary visual cortex

Seizures in this area result in focal sensory visual seizures, these may be positive visual phenomena (typically multi-colored shapes such as circles, flashes), or negative phenomena such as loss of a part of a visual field or blindness (amaurosis). Bilateral loss of vision may occur and this may be in the form of a black-out or a white-out. More complex formed visual images, considered focal cognitive seizures, are not seen in seizures arising in this area. The visual phenomenon is seen in the contralateral visual field to the hemisphere of seizure onset. If positive visual phenomena occur in a part of the visual field, the person may be seen to look in that direction during the seizure. It can be helpful to ask a young child to draw what they see during their seizure. Focal visual sensory seizures are usually brief (< 2 minutes) which can assist in distinguishing them from migraine aura (5-15 minutes).
Maybe consult a neurologist.
