dc.description.abstractObjective: Peripheral vestibular hypofunction can be seen unilaterally or bilaterally. The aim of thisstudy is to investigate the oculomotor test results in patients with unilateral and bilateral peripheralvestibular weakness.Material and Methods: The study consisted of 35 patients with a normal peripheral vestibularsystem, 35 patients with idiopathic unilateral peripheral vestibular weakness and 30 patients withidiopathic bilateral peripheral vestibular weakness according to the caloric test. Oculomotor testsincluding saccade, smooth pursuit and optokinetic tests were performed and evaluated in all patients.Results: A pathology was observed in 5 of 35 (14.2%) patients with unilateral vestibular weaknessand 9 of 30 (30.0%) patients with bilateral vestibular weakness while no pathology was observed in thecontrol group in terms of smooth pursuit.Conclusion: Smooth pursuit pathology can be seen both in patients with unilateral vestibularweakness and bilateral vestibular weakness. The optokinetic test and saccade test are not affected byunilateral vestibular weakness or bilateral vestibular weakness.en_US
