Blindness… maybe. I have what i call zaps where my vision narrows, I suppose for a split second it does go blind. Then i lose my balance and get the passing out feeling but all of the sudden right before i go out completely, it goes away. I nearly fall each time. It has been happening more often then not now-a-days

the high blood pressure = blindness effect you mean? that could be possible. i take blood pressure meds so maybe that’s why it only happened a few times.

believe it or not that could also be high blood pressure. i don’t mean to play doctor but that could be. obviously not everyone has high blood pressure.

It happened every time I would take a dab it would go black and sparkly like shooting stars and I would loose equilibrium and almost pass out. One I got on the hbp med it went away. Then it was loosing weight and getting healthy.

Talk with your doctor and maybe try a medication out. Also diet and exercise will ultimately be the best help to this.

my son in law gets what he calls a “whitey” if he smokes, sometimes it takes two whole hits sometimes just the one. he loses everything in his vision and it gets white, then he passes out. he is from wales and that is where the term comes from so now you can ask any europeans if they’ve had the issue. he does have high blood pressure if i recall correctly. i will call and ask him details about it today and report back when i get a chance.

So cannabis dialates your blood vessels rapidly. The reason people get red eyes… I think fainting or dizziness is often caused by the rapid drop in blood pressure caused by this dialation and a very short lived lack of O2 to the brain before it compensates. Just my hypothesis.

Back around 1984 I had a few OZ of chocolate thai. It would get me so high I’d feel like i was tripping.
One hot summer day I rolled a joint (pinners for this weed) and had a “white out” for about 10 minutes. I could function but everything went white. Scared the crap out of me. IDK maybe I was dehydrated, we were drinking beers as well. That was the last time I had real choc thai and that was the only time that weed caused a white out. Glad I wasn’t driving.

I had that happen to me, when I first stated smoking,
My brother took me to the movies, and on the way there we smoked a joint of some good shit, I was baked. Had no problem making it into the mall but once inside and just about to the movie theater I lost my sight. And on top of that The last thing I remember seeing was a couple of mall security guards. I was like “hey bro I can’t see”…
I had to follow my brother’s voice out of mall and back to the car… that scared me. Crazy times:crazy_face:

My dad had it once but my dad is not a pot smoker. He asked my uncle and my nephew, who are both potheads and one of them also uses opiates, to provide him a joint, and I bet they gave him a real fat one of some real strong stuff cause my mom found him sitting on the stairs of the venue and when my mom asked him to come along he told her he couldn’t see and then proceeded to tell her he had smoked some reefer.
I haven’t ever myself been blinded so much but I have been so high that I have trouble keeping my eyes open and I’ve also had the high go to my head so fast it gives me that light in the head fade where your vision goes away, like right before you pass out, same thing that happens when you get up too fast, that kind of thing.
And then I’ve had a seizure once smoking and vaping and dabbing too much at once.
Smoking too much is a real thing. Not something to strive for or something I’m proud of.
