        Or maybe a stew that induces visual deprivation for a time period of 1 full rotation of the earth relative to the sun?

              Also relative to (not around) the sun. The full rotation the earth does in a day is relative to the position of the sun. The absolute amount of rotation is different.

              You specified in reference to the sun. A day on earth is one rotation or revolution about its own axis. Has nothing to do with the sun. A rotation in reference to the sun is one year.

      Seriously though, whose stupid idea is this? Is this a thing that moms everywhere say to there hair-biting daughters? “You need to stop with that nasty habit sweety, our some day soon you’ll find yourself unable to see after lunch, and I’m not gonna tell you for how long!” And in the schools, stories go around like “Sally Newman was blind for a whole day last week, and she says her mom served her a stew that made her blind to make her stop biting hair!”???
