My pdoc said that BP bottoming out can happen with Abilify. I don't know if that was the cause of my vision issues but she thought it was why I had 2 very nasty falls, both when I was just standing up and then suddenly on the ground with huge bruises coming out. I hit a cabinet once and a pile of lumber the 2nd. The ER found nothing though, or told me nothing, the night I got scared enough to go there.
My meds now mess with my BP and actually led to a really bad fall where I tore a bunch of things in my ankle, requiring a pretty extensive surgery. That was because I didn't stand still for a moment before trying to run into my therapist's office because I was late. My fault and stupid but it's hard to remember that you can't just get up and go like usual.
I hope you get to the bottom of this. If you suspect BP you might want to monitor that at home for while before going to the Dr. since BP is known to creep up there.
