Can Cysts In The Maxillary Sinus Causes Lightheaded And Pressure In Eyes?

I recently had an MRI done and everything seem fine, but it was noted that I had a 3 cm retention cyst in the right maxillary sinus. I have had a lot of pressure in my eyes and feeling light headed. The feeling actually causes me to lose focus at work. Could these symptoms be caused by the cyst? Would this be considered a large cyst?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having cyst in the maxillary sinus and you are having light headedness and pressure in the eyes.
These symptoms can be caused by cyst in the maxillary sinus because of pressure over the eye ball and by referred pain to the eye.
Hence this requires treatment of the cyst, hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
