What Causes Difficulty In Focusing The Eyes And Dizziness?

thursday I had an upsetting episode with my eyes/vision. I have had this before, but never has it ever hit me this hard and lasted this long. I got dizzy, I could not focus my eyes (am blind in left eye, amblyopia), extreme nausea, only relief I got for 25 minutes was to cover my blind eye with my hand or both eyes closed. Help! I don t know where to begin to find out what is wrong. This has been going on for approximately 15 years and has gotten very worse and more often in the past 2 years.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

This could be vertigo and you would need treatment for that and it mostly involves doing some manoeuvres like Epley. But still I would like you to get a complete neurological examination because dizziness can be a symptom of neural involvement also.

Hope it helps.
