EYEs shake after spinning in circles??

[olivia224]

I spun around in circles like 2 times and when i stopped it seemed like my eyes started to shake very slightly....does this mean i have an inner ear disorder or does that happen to everyone when you spin around in circles??? help please

I agree, I think that is normal after spinning around. It's called nystagmus.

Don't quote me, I don't know what I'm saying...  As you spin your brain is trying to keep up with the rapidly changing scene and other info from your ears (semicircular canals).  When you stop, your brain is still trying to interpret the old information.  That much I'm pretty sure about but willing to listen to other interpretation.  Next, your inner ear is linked to your eye balls some how which I still don't fully understand but basically your inner ear tells your brain and eye balls what way is UP and since everything is still being processed, your eye balls are still being told that the room is spinning.  To answer your question, I do believe everybody experiences this eye movement after being stopped from spinning.

  There are people who have problems with their inner ears.  When they spin they get extremely dizzy, when they hear a loud sound their eye balls move, and each of these gets their brain working so hard they lose a lot of information...  They completely forget what they were doing and where they are with no hope of getting that information back.  These same people, because of where the inner ear problem is in relation to the brain, can not recall peoples names no mater how hard they try. Basically I'm just showing the link between the inner ear, brain, and eye balls.
