What Causes Constant Pressure Behind The Eyes Despite Taking Medication?
Hi I recently had two different very brief dizzy spells that have not come back since. I have felt like my eyes have had pressure behind them and feel as if my eyes are off a bit. I went to a doctor and she told me I have cloudy fluid in one ear and prescribed me doxycycline for 10 days. I have not been dizzy at all but my eyes still feel a little off. Any suggestions?

Hi,
The pressure sensation may be due to the sinuses being congested which can occur in conditions affecting the ear.
The use of an antihistamine/decongestant combination (even if there is no congestion of the nasal passages), would be helpful to you.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
