I, too, have suffered the impending feeling of dread as part of my field of vision disappear into nothing, only to re-emerge accompanied by the scotoma.
The thing that got me each time were the purity of the red-green-blues of the scintillations as well as the triangular geographical shapes that seemed to reveal the foundations of cognition.

That is what I wondered too after it happened to me, if what I saw was a glimpse into the inner working of how the final image gets to our consciousness, like it was missing some steps / processing.
