Vestibular migraine or migraine associated vertigo is recurrent episode of vertigo or dizziness associated with light sensitivity and noise intolerance with or without accompanying headache. The clinical examination and laboratory test within normal range in vestibular migraine but it is used to exclude other vestibular pathology that overlap with symptom of vestibular migraine and also to detect the extent of vestibular deficit.
