Brief Answer:
This indicates an episode of dizziness.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to health care magic
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

It seems from the history that your 12 year old son had an episode of blurred vision, seeing purple and headache.
This indicates an episode of dizziness probably because of hypoglycemia or ischemia. Since he is a 12 years old no need to worry he will be alright and no serious underlying diseases will be present.
Just see that he gets adequate nutrition and fluid intake and he will be fine.
If these episodes are recurrent migraine headache need to be ruled out.

Hope I have answered your question and the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
With regards
