Patient perceptions of visual, vestibular, and oculomotor deficits in people with Parkinson's disease.

CONCLUSIONS: Visual, vestibular, and oculomotor deficits are under-reported and under-assessed symptoms, which have a significant impact on the lives of people with PD. Healthcare providers should be aware of such deficits. The findings suggest that the healthcare team can better identify these deficits and identify important future areas of research.
