Honestly I don't have strict rules to practice. I'm learning the 3rd movement of K310 by just playing it with the sheet from beginning to end with both hands. Once I get fast and comfy with it I'll start playing it avoiding eye-contact with the sheet as best I can until I can drop the sheet completely. Then it starts to be really motivating to play the piece again and again and I'll experiment with different tempos, with or without the metronome, with different numerical sounds and tone transpositions.
Playing eyes closed is interesting too but I rarely think of doing it. I don't want to be strict and write down rules to follow, if I don't think about it I don't do it.
I don't really agree with "you are never going to get around to “fixing” it later" because I do that all the time, I make lots of mistakes all the time and I just don't care because I know I'll fix them later. Glenn Gould trained sometimes with background noise like TV or radio to avoid hearing his mistakes.
