Once I got over a bike and drove about 4km to the shop. When I got off the bike, entered said shop, got some products, and then I lost my vision. Gradually. It started going out like somebody was turning off the light little by little every second. And then complete darkness. At this point I was checking out and was trying to blindly get my pennies (prob was looking like a drunkard or smth) and went out trying not to trip over, sat on a bench, vision restored. It was amusing to me, quite scary for my mom and a shop owner.

Blood pressure. Your blood pressure was failing on you. When you have that happen you should not push it as it will only become worse.
Sit down for a second and it goes away almost immediately. You were lucky to have done so. If you had kept pushing you'd have fainted for a second. Not long but still long enough to get injured while you collapse.
Sometimes I'll do the fighter jet pilot thing where I breathe out slowly while clenching all my gut muscles and I feel like that helps, does that help or am I just imagining it?
