Recovery of Dynamic Visual Acuity in Unilateral Vestibular Hypofunction

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery · 2003 · Vol. 129(8) · pp. 819–819

Abstract

Use of vestibular exercises is the main factor involved in recovery of DVA-predictable and DVA-unpredictable in patients with unilateral vestibular hypofunction. Exercises may foster the use of centrally programmed eye movements that could substitute for the vestibulo-ocular reflex. The DVA-predictable would benefit more from this than would DVA-unpredictable.
