What Causes Blurred Vision And Dizzy Spells?
About 1 hour ago my vision started to get blurry. It's almost like my eyes are fluttering. I've also had a few dizzy spells over the last two days when I stand up or when I'm getting out of the bed in the morning. Do you know what this could be? And should I see a doctor?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having recurrent episodes of blurring of vision and dizziness on suddenly standing up or getting out of the bed in the morning.
This is because of sudden hypotension caused by sudden change of posture. Hence this can be avoided by spending few minutes by sitting before getting up and avoiding sudden getting up after sleeping for long hours.
In few conditions like hypotension, anemia.. these symptoms may be exaggerated and hence you require to consult your doctor for examination to find out the underlying cause and treatment.
Thank you
