VisualEyes VNG for Dizziness & Balance Disorders

What is VisualEyes?

VisualEyes is a state-of-the-art Video Nystagmography (VNG) technology that records and measures abnormal eye movements. This evaluation tool helps us diagnose a range of conditions, including:

  • Peripheral vestibular loss

  • Acoustic neuroma

  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

  • Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV)

  • Other vestibular and central neurological disorders

The vestibular system, which is responsible for balance, works closely with the brain to provide information about motion, head position, and spatial orientation. For optimal balance and to avoid dizziness, the vestibular system must function properly with the neurological system.

How Does the VisualEyes System Work?

VisualEyes uses lightweight binocular video goggles that patients wear comfortably. While wearing the goggles, patients focus on targets displayed in the lenses. A technician uses specialized software to examine and adjust the images and readings of the patient’s eyes.

The goggles use infrared light to track horizontal and vertical eye movements. They also measure the patient’s ability to focus while following a series of targets. These eye movements are crucial for evaluating the health of the vestibular system and how well it communicates with the brain.

What Will the Evaluation Reveal?

The results from the VisualEyes evaluation provide valuable insights into how the eyes respond to the vestibular system. By observing how the eyes track targets, we can detect signs of nervous or neurological issues. The system determines whether the vestibular system is responding correctly to sensory input.

VNG is the most effective method for identifying problems in the brain and vestibular system that may not be visible through other diagnostic methods. The technology helps pinpoint which specific regions of the brain are not functioning properly. This allows your doctor to develop targeted therapies and treatments to address the dysfunction, helping restore your balance and stability.

Why Choose VisualEyes for Your Balance Disorder?

If you are experiencing dizziness or balance issues due to a brain injury or vertigo, a VNG evaluation can help uncover underlying problems in your brain or vestibular system. Let VisualEyes open the door to targeted treatments that can enhance neuroplasticity and connectivity, restoring your balance and brain health.
