About this study

All patients who will have surgery for ear will be tested before the operation and after the first day and the first week. Virtual SVV(Interacoustics) will be used for testing. The deviation angle from the vertical line will be measured when 15, 30, and 45-degree head tilt to the left and right side while they were standing.
