Can Overhead Fluorescent Lights Cause Dizziness?
I work in a grocery store that has overhead fluorescent lights and during stressful situations, I experience dizziness, and also can t control eye movement (jerk downwards). I have had an MRI, EEG, BAER and found only minor things (ex: drusen, UBOs, etc). Can this aggravate the problem I experience?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Yes, the fluorescent lights can very well cause the visual disturbance thereby instigating the pathways of dizziness.
Well done and you have undergone the test!
Changing the fluorescent lamps or the shop you work with would have solved the problem.
