Bill,
  I agree with you. The lens is actually not really supplied with
direct blood vessels, the ocular symptoms of migraine are due to
disturbances in the cortex of the brain that controls vision and/or the
optic nerve. The lens only refracts light, it doesn't produce
vision--that's what the retina and brain are for. At least that's my
current understanding of the mechanism for visual changes in migraine
and opthalmic migraine. (Without doing some basic research into this.)
