title: Vestibulo-oculomotor disturbances caused by occupational hazards.
abstract: Air-borne pollutants inhaled by workers when welding or in environments containing hydrocarbon solvents can result in occult CNS disturbances. The disturbances can appear as a psycho-organic syndrome, but early symptoms such as vertigo or dizziness may indicate the presence of a vestibular involvement.
