Dizziness/eye tracking

I just typed this all out & it disappeared! Hopefully it's not showing up twice. The shorter version of what I typed before... I feel slightly dizzy this morning, but seems to happen when I move my eyes, like it's an eye-tracking problem. I got up & walked around the office, no problems there, no weaving around or anything. I've been up & down the stairs, no problems thankfully. If I just sit and stare into space, it's ok but when I move my eyes around, I feel off kilter. My neuro said folks who get migraines tend to get vertigo more often. This isn't vertigo, nothing is spinning. Nothing spins when I close my eyes. Possibly something about my computer screen? Or if it's MS, do any of you have something similar, eye-tracking slight dizziness? I have a lot of driving to do today so I'm hoping it's just the computer screen. Thanks, Michelle

Also, something else I just noticed. I took my glass off and closed one eye, then the other. I have different prescriptions in each eye but they're not very far off, never have been. Today though, when I look at a document hanging on my wall, with the left eye closed, I can still read it. It's slightly blurry but not terrible. But with the right eye closed - totally blurry, can't make a thing out. That's new. Wonder 1) what the heck that is all about and 2) if that would cause the feeling of being off-kilter.

@isaacson72 , viewing a computer screen is a quick route to short-sightedness. I know, I've been looking at them for over 30 years! It's recommended that a few times an hour, you should look up and focus on something long-distance. This exercises the eyes to manage both distances, short and long. Looking at your latest update, I would suggest a trip to your friendly optician for an eye test.
