A transient visual loss is used to indicate loss of visual function lasting less than 24 hours. A proper history regarding timing, pattern, provoking factors, and associated symptoms can often provide a clue to the cause of the episode.[3]

The most common cause of monocular transient vision loss is amaurosis fugax, usually resulting from an embolic complication of an ulcerated plaque of the carotid artery. In contrast, the most common cause of transient binocular vision loss is migraine.
Definition: Visual Loss: objective loss of visual acuity during a finite period attributable to an underlying disease.
If “blindness” or “low vision” of both eyes is documented but the visual impairment category is not documented, assign code H54. 3, Unqualified visual loss, both eyes. If “blindness” or “low vision” in one eye is documented but the visual impairment category is not documented, assign a code from H54.

Abstract. Transient monocular blindness (TMB) or amaurosis fugax is diagnosed when visual disturbance or loss (blindness, dimming, fogging, blurring) affects one eye for seconds or minutes. TMB may occur alone or in combination with transient hemispheric ischaemia (TIA).
Transient monocular visual loss is often referred to as amaurosis fugax, irrespective of the cause. However, it is more accurate to reserve the term amaurosis fugax for episodes of transient monocular blindness resulting from ischemia of the ocular vessels.
An attack of abrupt loss of vision in one eye that recovers completely after a short period is called "transient monocular blindness" (TMB) or amaurosis fugax. The most common cause of TMB is atherothromboembolism from the origin of the internal carotid artery (ICA), whereas atrial fibrillation is quite uncommon.
