I don't know why vision, but I know that vision and hearing go for me, too -- usually just before I hit the floor. In my case, I know that it's orthostatic hypotension -- BP dropping when I change position. My guess is that it's your problem, too.
It's not good, although I don't know how bad it actually is, and it can be caused by exactly sixteen gazijillion and three things. Best to talk to your doctor about it. The meds you're on, if any, can cause it, or bad circulation, or stress, or whatever.
Hope that helps a little.
