Patients and Methods: Thirty-six healthy adult participants with no ear complaints were enrolled. Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potential tests were performed to all participants. Latency and amplitude values of the waves were recorded. Results: The mean N1 latency was 9.62±2.02 4.30-16.00 msec and the mean P1 latency was 14.90±2.33 9.0-21.00 msec. The mean amplitude was 3.36±1.36 1.06-8.48 µV. There was a positive correlation between N1 and P1 latencies and age r=242, p=0.0359 for N1; r=250, p=0.030 for P1 . Conclusion: Ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials can be obtained easily and can be used in the evaluation of vestibular disorders. However, the effect of age should be considered when interpreting results.}, number={6}, publisher={Istanbul University}
