Because it is so infrequent, I have not told my doctor about it. But over the last few month it has occurred both indoors and on a hiking trail, for about a full minute. My first thought isn't so much, "meds," because I've switched meds several times in the last few years, but instead I think, "brain tumor," one of which just killed my father.
Hard to tell if this has something to do with my eyeglasses, or my SZA, or a tumor. I go to see my doctor in a few months, and this time I'll share this experience with him. I hope he's heard it before and will know what to do.

I have something like this, they called it ocular migraines---painless but temporary vision blurring in just part of the visual field, I can still see but there are like blind spots.
