Summary

This study evaluates the effect of binasal occlusion (BNO) glasses on balance and eye movement in adults with dizziness after a concussion. Participants will stand on a force plate while rapidly reading a series of numbers both with and without the BNO glasses. It is thought that the BNO glasses will improve both balance and the time to read the numbers.
