I think dizziness is more appropriate for "سیاهی رفتن چشم". I found results in Persian websites, such as:
گیجی، vertigo(سرگیجه)، dizziness (سیاهی رفتن چشم)،

I also find results for 'Visual Dizziness'.

FEELING FAINT
Often when dizziness is related to a sudden drop in blood pressure or low blood sugar, a person can feel as if he is going to “pass out” or faint. This can be a terribly uncomfortable and anxiety-provoking feeling often characterized by one or more of the aforementioned symptoms. It can also include nausea, weakness, increased perspiration and changes in vision and hearing. While fainting itself is not usually harmful, serious injury can result if a person falls.
