The Importance of Visual Training for Balance Enhancement
Incorporating visual training into balance exercises can help enhance balance abilities by providing robust information about the relationship between the visual and vestibular systems. Training with changes in visual environment and static posture can help activate and adjust postural muscles to changes in the visual world.

Summary
Eye movements can affect the vestibular system responsible for balance in the body. Quick head movements can help with locating objects, while oscillations on a boat can cause motion sickness due to the disorientation of the eyes and vestibular system.

Summary
Incorporating visual system balance training along with static posture exercises can improve balance by activating the postural muscles and adjusting them according to changes in the visual environment. The balance system also involves the cerebellum and body surface map.
