Abstract

A new visual test to evaluate imbalance of the vestibulo-ocular reflex was devised. Patients with unilateral vestibular disorder were asked to look at vertical parallel stripes on five different scales while shaking their heads at one hertz in about 40 degrees in a horizontal plane. The viewed object on a certain scale was mixed up during head rotations to the affected side but remained clear during rotations to the intact side. It was thought that this scale indicated the degree of imbalance of labyrinthine function.
