About this trial
The purpose this study is to measure sensitivity to visual and vestibular or balance motion. It is hoped that the results may help researchers better understand how aging and disease affect motion perception.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
general good health
general good health
specific unilateral or bilateral vestibular loss
Disqualifiers
subjects who are institutionalized or otherwise not self-sufficient.
enduring sequelae due to diseases of the nervous system, eyes, ears, head and neck, and limbs, except for changes commensurate with normal aging (e.g. presbyacusic hearing loss, mild cataract, etc.).
abnormal cognitive function, which if in question can be determined as a score of <27 on the Mini-Mental State test.
corrected visual acuity worse than 20/20 up to age 65, worse than 20/40 if >65
