What Causes Pressure In Sinuses And Neck Along With Dizzy Spells?
I have extremely poor vision. The eyesight in my left eye is completely unfocused. My right eye is half as bad. My pupils are dilating and constricting rapidly, though I m not sure if it s my poor vision that makes it appear that way. I also feel pressure in my sinuses and my neck. Whenever I put my neck against anything, I feel that pressure. When I get up from that position, I become so dizzy that I begin to see black around the edges. I ve been dizzy for years, but it escalated to that point only recently.

Hello,
Since you have history of extremely poor vision, you are suggested to visit an eye specialist and get your vision tested. May be, with a pair of lens you will be able to see better. You will be treated with medicines, eye drops and surgery if required, depending on the pathology detected. You also have sinus problems and now are experiencing dizziness you are suggested to get clinically examined by an ENT, get X-ray PNS done to detect any deviation in the nasal septum that requires correction or other pathology that is causing dizziness.
Blocked sinus may trigger allergy, cold, lightheadedness hence causing middle ear disturbances, pressure in the ear gets disturbed causing balance problems and dizziness. Get treated at the earliest, you will be given conservative treatment but may be recommended surgery if required. Since you are dizzy, stay at rest. Avoid doing heavy work and do not drive.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
