    The study assessed visually enhanced vestibulo-ocular reflex (VVOR) and vestibulo-ocular reflex suppression (VORS) in vestibular migraine (VM) patients.

  • 2

    Patients with VM exhibited significantly higher VVOR and VORS gains compared to healthy controls, indicating altered visual-vestibular integration.

  • 3

    VORS showed a significant nonlinear association with VM risk, with a strong correlation identified for high VORS gains (≥0.39) and VM.

  • 4

    VVOR gains demonstrated a linear relationship with VM risk, but high VVOR was not independently associated with VM.

  • 5

    The findings suggest that VORS impairment is a more specific indicator of central dysfunction in VM than elevated VVOR.
