Am I Having Side Effects Of Glaucoma Drops?

Hello, I am using glaucoma drops as a secondary pressure increase following a steroid injection for iritis/uveitis. I m having head rush symptoms when I go from laying flat to standing and sometimes sitting to standing. Is this a side effect of the drops?
