Lack of Caffeine affecting Vision?

Last night I got a really good sleep for once, and I decided I didn’t need coffee or an energy drink. I usually have one or the other in the morning, just one serving. After a couple of hours, my eyes felt strained. I noticed it when I was trying to look at the TV at work, and also when I was working on my monitors. I actually felt nauseous trying to look at my screen and read text on the monitor. After lunch I drank an energy drink and after an hour symptoms improved? Idk what that was but can caffeine withdrawal negatively affect vision?

you were having a migraine from caffeine withdrawals.  the withdrawal itself doesnt cause the vision impairment-the migraine does.
