temporary distributance - blindness; right eye

HI
Disturbance of vision is happening to me on a right eye approximately one year.(repeats me approximately on three weeks; is painless( maybe difetent feeling of an eye. Disturbance lasts some seconds to approximately 2minutes. After distributance I have completely normal vision.( symptom is simmilar as loosing pixels on view(appears greyness)
When the  disturbance started to to appear was  urgently first sent to an oculist, then i made ultrasound of neck vessels, then ultrasound of the vessels after an eye, then a cardiologist, then a neurologist( magnetic resonance of head, EEG); I think that there is no investigation, that I didn't finish it;
Result: ALL OKAY; problem is staying
A neurologist turned to diagnosis with opinion (retinalna migraine); he can't check this with investigation but he says, if everything is all OKAY it can be this;

But I doubt; I never had migraines and  I have feeling, that  this  isn't cause of my problem;
What is your opinion? incidence of disturbance coincides with a strong  eye blow approximately one year ago.(ophthalmologist sad that the eye and v retina vessels is everythink OK), so that none was taking this information seriously. Disturbance in majority happens on approximately three weeks mostly between work when  is much rising and crouchings.
any ideas?
thnx

Gonoscopy was not made yet. Perhaps ophthalmologist think, that this is not neccesary because the eye pressure was normal. Do you think is possible, that such simptoms are caused  by front side of the eye??

I decided, that at the next distributance I will made small test. In front of the eye I will shake a small hole, and then I will try to see retina vessels(simple trick to see the retina vessels)This will tell me in general where is the problem(front side or back side)

Do you have some idea for me, to pay some spatial attention to something  during distributance(some test during distributance?). Perhaps something that will help to diagnose the problem more explicit.

Thank you

Make sure they have done lab tests to rule out Giant Cell Arteritis as a possibility.  Also, given history of trauma, yoy may want to see a glaucoma specialist to perform gonioscopy and detailed exam of the front part of the eye to make sure everything is OK.  If that all checks out, ocular migraine is a possibility but you need to rule out more serious stuff first (sounds like they've done most of that already).
