A member asked:
What could cause someone to go blind for 10-20 minutes and then be back to normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Lots of reasons: Including ocular migraine, optic disc drusen, papilledema, impending retinal vascular occlusion, giant cell arteritis, etc. You must see an eye doctor for a dilated retinal exam.
