Abstract

The rotating sensation caused by optokinetic nystagmus (OKN) stimuli was studied. Twelve normal subjects were examined and subjects with tinnitus in the young group (20-39 years old), middle aged group (40-64 years old) and elderly group (65-years old) were examined. OKN was recorded by electronystagmography (ENG) and the maximum slow phase velocity (Max. SPV), optokinetic adaptation limit (OAL) were measured. The OKN drum velocity between the initiation of the drum rotation and the appearance of a rotating sensation or its disappearance were measured. The rotating sensation appeared earlier in the elderly group than in the young group. The rotating sensation seemed to appear earlier by repeated OKN examinations, while visual-vestibular response conduction time was shortened by repeated examinations.
