Purpose Early studies reported some abnormalities in saccade and vergence eye
movements in children with vertigo and vergence deficiencies. The purpose of this study …

Vergence abnormalities could lead to inappropriate vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR), causing
vertigo and imbalance (Brandt 1999). Indeed, a recent study by Anoh-Tanon et al.(2000) …

It is well known that vergence movements are important for distance appreciation, depth
vision and stereopsis. Moreover, vergence movements are very probably used by the CNS …

Prior studies have pointed toward a link between the saccadic and vergence systems,
coordinating binocular saccadic movements. Recent studies have shown that vergence …

Background Previous clinical evaluations have demonstrated a difference in eye
movements in healthy children compared to children with vertigo without vestibular …

Objective In children screened for dizziness with vergence disorders, we tested short and
long term efficacy of orthoptic vergence training (OVT) and instructions to reduce screen …

Vergence insufficiency is frequent in many populations including children with vertigo in the
absence of measurable vestibular dysfunction. Orthoptic exercises are typically used to …

The present study examines the quality of binocular coordination of saccades at far and near
distance in 15 children with symptoms of vertigo headache and equilibrium disorders; these …

Purpose The objective of our study was to examine horizontal smooth pursuit performance
in strabismic children and in children with vergence deficits, and to compare these data with …

purpose. An earlier study suggested that deficits of vergence can influence postural control
via the efferent and afferent proprioceptive signals. In this study, postural control in 28 …
