Pendahuluan: Hipofungsi vestibuler perifer bilateral merupakan kasus yang jarang ditemui dan memiliki gejala gangguan keseimbangan yang menyebabkan gangguan penglihatan dan stabilitas postural. Etiologi penyakit ini sebagian besar idiopatik, selain itu disebabkan oleh zat ototoksik, penyakit autoimun, infeksi dan neoplasma yang melibatkan telinga dalam. Diagnosa ditegakkan berdasarkan gejala klinis, pemeriksaan keseimbangan sederhana dan tes khusus seperti dynamic visual acuity test (DVA), Rotatory Chair dan elektronistagmografi (ENG) pada tes kalori sebagai standar baku. Tatalaksana hipofungsi vestibuler perifer bilateral terutama berupa terapi rehabilitasi vestibuler berupa terapi adaptasi, subtitusi dan kompensasi/ habituasi lebih dipilih jika dibandingkan dengan terapi farmakologis atau terapi bedah. Laporan Kasus: Seorang pasien usia 65 tahun datang dengan keluhan pusing berputar dan berkurangnya pendengaran. Pemeriksaan pendengaran menunjukkan hasil tuli sensorineural dan tes DVA menunjukkan adanya penurunan tiga baris huruf pada Snellen chart dan elektronistagmografi menunjukkan paresis kanal bilateral. Pasien didiagnosis dengan hipofungsi vestibuler perifer bilateral ec. suspek prebiastasis. Tatalaksana adalah dengan terapi rehabilitasi vestibuler dengan metode adaptasi. Simpulan: Hipofungsi vestibuler perifer bilateral merupakan kasus yang jarang ditemui, dapat dibedakan dengan pemeriksaan objektif spesifik yaitu elektronistagmografi. Terapi pilihan utama untuk penyakit ini adalah berupa terapi rehabilitasi vestibuler metode adaptasi, subtitusi dan habituasi.

AbstractBackground:The current study compared a migrainous vertigo group with a migraine without vertigo group. It was hypothesised that those with migrainous vertigo would have more abnormal test results during a non-migrainous period than those who suffer from migraine without vertigo.Methods:Both groups, comprising 10 participants each, were tested using: the gaze stabilisation test, dynamic visual acuity test, sensory organisation test, head shake sensory organisation test and functional gait assessment.Results:Eighteen females and 2 males aged 18–53 years participated. There were no significant differences between the two groups for the dynamic visual acuity test, sensory organisation test or head shake sensory organisation test. However, mean dynamic visual acuity loss was greater in both groups than in a normal population, and the head shake sensory organisation (sway) test was well below the normal mean. The functional gait assessment showed a significant difference (p = 0.0025) between the two groups.Conclusion:Both groups showed abnormalities in vestibular functioning compared with norms, suggesting that both had some degree of vestibular dysfunction. However, vestibular dysfunction was greater in the migrainous vertigo group than in the migraine without vertigo group, as evidenced by differences in functional gait assessment.

Dynamic visual acuity test (DVAT) plays a key role in the assessment of vestibular function, the visual function of athletes, as well as various ocular diseases. As the visual pathways conducting dynamic and static signals are different, DVATs may have potential advantages over the traditional visual acuity tests commonly used, such as static visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and static perimetry. Here, we provide a review of commonly applied DVATs and their several uses in clinical ophthalmology. These data indicate that the DVAT has its unique clinical significance in the evaluation of several ocular disorders.
