Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate the efficacy of memantine on symptomatic oscillopsy by means of the VAS and the Snellen Visual Scale (SVS). The primary end point is the reduction of symptoms (VAS score);Secondary Objective: Secondary End Point is a reduction of physical parameter of Nystagmus (amplitude, frequency, speed and rythm) and improving of Fixation Index (FI), as measured with Videoculography (VOG). Reading test.;Primary end point(s): the primary outcome measure will be a reduction of > 33% of oscilloscopy as assessed by the VAS and improvement of visual acuity assessed by SVS.
