Alice in Wonderland Syndrome prevalence in migraineurs was found to be higher than expected. Alice in Wonderland Syndrome was mostly associated with migraine with aura and tended to occur close to the migraine attack, suggesting the existence of a common pathophysiological mechanism. Patients treated with migraine preventive treatments had a higher chance of decreasing or even resolving Alice in Wonderland Syndrome episodes.
