  • Title: [Visuovestibular interaction in the regulation of body posture].
    Author: Hamann KF.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1982 Sep; 61(9):510-2. PubMed ID: 6983014.
    Abstract:
    Visual stimulation can provoke egocentric illusory movements or changes of posture. Therefore, vestibulo-spinal tests were usually performed with eyes closed. A more sensible method seems to be the "visual stabilization", which is obtained by means of a box fixed on the head and with eyes open. In this manner, body instability due to vestibular disorders becomes more apparent.
