Is it normal to sometimes get temporary blindness after standing up?

  • It's normal.

    Your parents are silly for suggesting it's a sign of you going blind. That's like saying "every time I run into a wall it hurts, it must mean I'm dying".

    One time when I was a child, I was stationary for 6 hours on the sofa, suddenly got up and tried to navigate to the kitchen, got half way and fainted. My vision went fuzzy and I just fell. It was only for about 5-10 seconds.

    If it bothers you or affects your more than most people, get up more slowly :D
