The surgery went without incident. spoke to surgeon and anesthesiologist.,no issues. I am having issues with chronic dizziness, a feeling of lightheaded and overall issues with depth perception. I don't feel like myself and there is no explanation. I went to an ENT, 2 ophthalmologists, neurologist and internist. No explanation is given. Has anyone seen this before, explanations and or suggestions?
