dizziness when moving eyes

I get a couple seconds dizziness every time i move my eyes or turn my head. Although it only lasts for a few seconds, its bothersome because i am constantly moving my head and eyes. What could this condition be?

when I close my left eye and try to walk..I fall over ..I have no balance at all.  When I close my right eye, I'm fine.  My right eye has started to droop when bothe eyes are open. Its fine if I close my left eye

heard the 'whoosh' also... diagnosed with labyrinthitis.  only thing that helped was scalp acupuncture.  Got rid of the dizziness/unsteadiness and faint feeling within 3 days.  I now still have some eye pain, and only hear the 'whoosh' when my eyes are really tired.   This was triggered by a varicella vaccination.

I have a similar issue,but it is somehow related to depression.  When I take the depression meds..no problem.  When I do not take the meds, I get the dizziness described by the person who posted the initial question.   In addition to the dizziness, and for lack of a better desciption, I hear a "whoosh" as I move my eyes or head.
