Answer
VNG testing is used to determine if an inner ear disease may be causing a balance or dizziness problem. If you have a mild infection or temporary vertigo, the ear/nose/throat doctor would be more appropriate to deal with it than a neurologist.
Best wishes in curing or healing your problem.

Answer
Vertigo is usually a problem of your balance system in your inner ear. But if your glass are misaligned on your head, it can create dizziness. Also, glass that are too strong can cause an effect.
If you don't feel dizzy when you are not wearing your glasses, perhaps you should see and optometrist.
