It sounds like an "Ocular Migraine" but I would see your Optometrist and have him perform a "Dilated Fundus Exam" and a "Visual Field Test" to rule out any Retinal pathology such as an impending retinal detachment, Vitreal Syneresis such as a PVD or Posterior Vitreal Detachment, or other "dormant" pathology. Sorry about the big words but you can easily google them for further clarrification.

Are you prone to migraines? What you describe is often the pre-cursor to a migraine episode. Some people go on to develop the headache about 20 minutes later while many do not....I too, get them occasionally.

Cheers!
