This issue has so far persisted between saving and loading. Crouching, going prone and standing up, and teleporting to another location.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have an NPC follower
2. Interact with them, choose 'control'
3. You are now blind!
4. Switch back to your main character
5. Vision does not return
