See a doctor now: This doesn't sound good - and I'm a little surprised you haven't taken any action yet. Certainly these antibiotics could be affecting your vision and it needs evaluation ASAP. Not sure what that injectable antibiotic was -but some of them are associated with visual side-effects. Also, treating cauliflower ear with antibiotics doesn't sound right... Antibiotics are for infections. Hope you get help
