What could cause a person's vision to begin dimming as if a dimmer switch is being used? I will be in a well lit room and suddenly it's as if the light's being turn down with the exception of my central vision which seems to be brighter. I will also see haloes around the object(s) I am looking at . The visual distortion will leave after a few minutes. I do have hx of TIAs, double vision, NICM. I've had abnormal eegs but no seizures and one abnormal brain spect. CTs and MRIs have been normal.
