AB  - The  vestibular  system  develops  relatively  early  in  gestation.1-4  The  vestibular  system  is  composed  of  vestibulo-ocular  and  vestibulospinal  subsystems,  each  with  distinct  tasks  and  each  requires  different  methods  of  assessment.  Labyrinthine  reflexes,  which  are  mediated  by  the  vestibulospinal  system,  provide  postural  tone  necessary  for  the  emergence  of  early  motor  milestones  (e.g.,  rolling,  sitting,  standing).5–7  The  role  of  the  vestibulo-ocular  system  in  visual  stabilization,  acuity,  and  the  development  of  visual  spatial  and  perception  abilities  has  been  well  documented.8–11  It  is  therefore  logical  to  deduce  that  individuals  with  deficits  of  the  vestibular  system  since  birth  or  very  early  in  life  will  present  with  difficulties  in  either  motor  or  visuospatial  abilities  or  both.12,13
