History of migraine with aura and rhinoplasty - should I be concerned about vision loss and can vasoconstrictors be avoided?

I’m interested in rhinoplasty but I’m very scared because I have history of migraine with aura. When I was researching rhinoplasty it came to my attention that surgeons use vasoconstrictors during rhinoplasty. I also found in literature that this should be avoided in patients with vasospasm. How likely is vision loss after rhinoplasty in patients with vasospasm? And could vasoconstrictors be avoided? Thank you
