This sounds fairly run of the mill. Usually, if there is a genuine problem with your eyes, your optician will issue you a note that you pass on to your GP, so that he/she can apply for an appointment with a more senior eye doctor at the hospital. It might be something simple, but your optician is doing the right thing contained by having you reffered just in skin there is something more sinister. You have to remember that opticians, even though they have pretty advanced technique nowadays, do not have all the high-tech diagnosing machines that are available surrounded by hospitals. I wouldn't worry too much, you will probably get an excellent examination at the hospital and get hold of a minor treatment, if anything.
Migraines have nothing to do with the eyes, and an eye nouns can't diagnose migraine.
Migraines are a form of seizure disorder, like epilepsy. They're not headaches, and don't necessarily even include a headache at adjectives. If you just get bad headache, those aren't migraines.
On the other hand, if you've ever gone temporarily blind due to a shimmering streak covering your field of vision, which started as a point surrounded by the center and then slowly traveled in an arc to one of the corners of your FOV, lasting roughly speaking a half hour, that's a scintillating scotoma, and it is sufficient to diagnose a migraine. That had nothing to do beside your eyes. That was a chemical cascade in your brain, technically a simple partial commandeering, or a depolarization wave.
