Traditional physical therapy using Epley's maneuver
Epley's maneuver was performed once a week for three weeks. The maneuver was performed by patient in sitting position, head was rotated towards involved side and then extended to 30 degrees, it was then rotated to 180 degrees followed by patient rolling onto opposite side. Each position was maintained for 1-2 minutes.

Each position was maintained for 1-2 minutes.
Oculomotor and Vestibular Ocular Reflex (VOR) exercises
oculomotor and VOR exercises after Epley's maneuver. The exercises were performed for approximately 5 minutes daily or 1 to 2 minutes, 3 to 4 times a day, in sitting position. The exercises were continued for three weeks. The maneuver was performed by patient in sitting position, head was rotated towards involved side and then extended to 30 degrees, it was then rotated to 180 degrees followed by patient rolling onto opposite side. Each position was maintained for 1-2 minutes. Saccadic exercises were performed by moving eyes between two stationary targets. Smooth pursuit exercises were performed by tracking a moving target while keeping head still and VOR exercises were performed by moving head left to right while maintaining eyes on stationary target
