I'm pretty sure the question here is why do /you/ see visuals when you meditate.
Meditation is clearing your mind and quite literally focusing on nothing, to allow for a brief sense of peace and allowing you to concentrate on either your next tasks or more complex tasks as there's less going on inside your head that would affect your mood. You're not supposed to see anything, because anything and everything should be gone. At the very most, you should be focusing on a single basic stimulus, like breathing.
And why is this on Veeky Forums?

You guys are idiots and obviously know nothing about meditation
Andrew Fisher
What kind of mediation are you doin' man?
Jose Ramirez
Release of DMT, in a similar mechanism to dreaming.
Easton Jackson
It's all a dream

Play around with the app fraksl
It's just ambient feedback loops in your brain, you become aware of them if you calm everything else

In a sense it is a focus on nothing, but not as you imply. It is both an appreciation of nothing and everything (kind of like that line in the Incredibles where if everyone's special no one is). It's the source of all the annoying eastern paradox talk, but they do have a point.

I see visuals as soon as I close my eyes in my bed at night, I can make some simple things appear like a green circle, some red dots but if I don't try anything, I see faint things appearing and disappearing everywhere, faces, objects, etc.
Also if I get jumscared by a sudden noise in the night for example wood cracking, I see a bright white flash with a static image in it, generally a simple scene or landscape.
It must be some dream-like brain activity when you're relaxed
