Résumé / Abstract
The vestibular function plays an essential role in the stabilization of the image on the retina. In addition, when the head is tilted, it contributes to maintain horizontally the plane of the gaze. Vestibular changes can result in oscillopsia and/or diplopia. The latter is related to occurence of a skew deviation. The authors emphasize the frequent occurrence of diplopia following disorders of the vestibular nerve, specially after vestibular neuritis. In clinical practice, the causal relationship between vestibular neuritis and diplopia is often unrecognized.
