She has been to the Dr, he gave her meds for migraine and high BP, what in the world could be going on with her

Hello....i understand your concern.
Your daughter seems to have symptoms of raised intra cranial tension and papilloedema which can cause blurring of vision and blackouts along with severe headaches.
I suggest you visit a neurologist and get her examined at the earliest
She will need an mri scan of the brain and probably a lumbar puncture( a procedure involving removal of fluid from the spinal canal ).
I hope this helps.
Regards,
