Summary

This study looks at how people with long-term dizziness (chronic vestibulopathy) walk and keep their balance, comparing them to healthy volunteers. Researchers will measure things like step length, sway, and fear of falling using special equipment and tests. The goal is to better understand the everyday challenges these patients face, which could guide future treatments.
