What Causes Dizziness And Blurred Vision In A 64-year-old Person?

I am 64, and I have blurred vision and dizziness on a daily bases, sometimes 2-3 times a day. It will occure at anytime, setting, standing doesn t matter. The dizzy spells may last for 1-3 minutes, vision problems longer. I had throat cancer 6-7 years ago and had radiation. It messed up the tube in my left ear, I had a tube put in to help drain, sometimes it will get plugged. I have drops to take care of that. I am wondering what is causeing my blurred vision and dizzy spells. Thanks for any info you can give me. Bob

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such dizziness could be due to general debility, orthostatic hypo-tension, low hemoglobin, and all of these need to be differentiated the thing I would advise to get done the CT of brain, just to rule out cerebral pathology hope this information helps.
