Brief Summary  
Dyslexia is a common learning difficulty that does not compromise oral or nonverbal reasoning skills. In the literature, different theories have tried to explain the etiology of this disorder. Phonological impairment is the most well-known hypothesis for dyslexia; however, other researchers have suggested that dyslexia could be due to cerebellar impairments. A visual attentional deficit and an abnormal oculomotor pattern are present in children with dyslexia. Based on these different theories, several researchers have tried to develop different training types to improve the reading abilities of children with dyslexia. However, there has been a lack of treatment interventions specifically targeting sensorimotor training to enhance functional outcomes in children with developmental dyslexia. The vestibular system plays a crucial role in the development of visuomotor integration, memory, and cognitive processes in humans. This study evaluates the vestibular training to improve the visuo-motor and visual memory in developmental dyslexic children.
