Suggest Treatment For Vision Problem In An Elderly Person

My mother is 80 years old and has been in extremely good health. For the past few weeks, she has been experiencing vision problems and, when she is standing, she says it feels like she is standing on board a ship going back and forth. She is not dizzy and does not have any nausea. She did have open heart surgery about 25 years ago to repair a valve, but has been in excellent health.
