Periodic loss of sight

So, sometimes maybe I'm playing PS3 for a long period of time or I was simply sitting down. Recently I was at the driving range, reached down to pick up a golf ball and when I got back up I periodically almost lost my full sight in both eyes, weird fuzzy figures starting encroaching from the sides of my eyes. Then It slowly went a way and I finished off my bucket of balls. Although over the year I've noticed that this happens sometimes when I'm getting up from doing other things, say maybe playing PS3 for an extended period of time. Although it never got to the point where it almost covered the middle of my eyes. The feeling of it is almost blissful but I'm worried if this is a bad thing.

Re: Periodic loss of sight

Try asking this question under the Eye and Vision board. Bet you someone there might now since no one here seems to know. Eye problems can be scary and I bet no one wants to give you the wrong answer by mistake. And if I were you, I'd ask my doc!

Re: Periodic loss of sight

JimJammy,

Welcome to the boards. Any sudden changes in your vision need to be reported to an eye doctor. While your vision changes may be easily treated, left untreated, it could have serious consequences. Your eyes are very delicate organs, and are often called the window into your overall health.

Please do not mess around with your vision, see a doctor...Best to you
