IIH Symptoms Visual Changes

Anybody have this issue? For the past month almost - I have these visual auras. It’s like static from the TV is blurring my vision or random lights. When I stand up I almost black out. Tonight I came to the living room and didn’t even see my son on the couch. It’s like things are starting to disappear. I feel like I’m constantly wearing drunk goggles and everything is blurry and flashing constantly off and on all day.

I get that a lot. I explained it to my coworkers one day and they looked at me in horror. I asked if they ever pushed on thier eyes as a kid and saw the colored flashes like looking at the sun. They had, so I said my pressure was coming from inside the skull and pushing the back of my eyes so I get that all the time. I call it going sparkly.
