Conditions
Summary
Vestibular neuritis is a brutal and continuous dizzying syndrome of peripheral (vestibular) origin without cochlear or other associated involvement. Specifically, vestibular neuritis is inflammation of the nerve that innervates the vestibular canals (the inner ear). It is characterized by the sudden onset of intense and prolonged vertigo accompanied by postural imbalance, nausea and vomiting, without hearing impairment or other neurological symptoms. Vestibular neuritis is the second cause of peripheral vertigo after benign paroxysmal positional vertigo. It represents approximately 7% of patients consulting for vertigo. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if wearing Boarding Ring glasses can be accelerated vestibular compensation.

Interventions
Lying, patientwill be placed so that he can introduce water (hot then cold) into his external ear canal. It is the reaction of the vestibular system (sensory organ responsible for balance) which is then measured with a helmet placed over his eyes and which measures the nystagmus (movement of the eye) which reflects vestibular activity.
A helmet with an infrared camera will be placed in front of patient eyes. This will allow visualizing on screen and measuring eye movements spontaneous or induced in the dark by various tests.
The patient will be asked to trample on the spot (30 steps) with the indexes pointed forward. In the event of vestibular asymmetry, the patient turns at a varying angle to the right or to the left. This will then measure what is called the angle of deflection of the fukuda.
there are 3 degrees: * Degree I: nystagmus that exists only when the eyes are turned to the right. * Degree II: also exists when the eyes are to the right or to the front. * Degree Ill: exists when the eyes are on the right, front, or left
