What Causes Lightheadedness And Dizziness After Bending?
Hi. My name is Scott - yesterday I was bending down to do something near the floor and when I stood up was lightheaded and dizzy. Stayed dizzy for an hour or so until I laid down to take a nap. Felt better afterwards. Today, I have blood in the inside corner of one eye. Could these 2 things be related?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
These two symptoms you describe may be related to the blood pressure changes in bending and standing position.
One possiblity is there was positional hypotension that caused your lightheadedness, blood in your cornea may be caused from blood pressure changes or increased venous pressure during bending over ( Valsalva maneuver) in your brain venous circulation.
Hope I helped you. Stay in good health.
