Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.
I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you had an episode of seeing rings in the visual field.
This can be because of transient ischaemic attack.
In your case it was probably because of hypotension or dehydration.
The other common causes are anemia, hypovolemia, vascular causes...
If you come across recurrent episodes then you need to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back yo me for further questions.
Thank you
With regards
