Sensitivity to visual motin stimuli is COMMON in vestibular disorders. That's because the brain ues visual information as a cue for balance. When other balance cues (inner ear, somatosensation) are faulty, visual motion stimulu can trick the brain into thinking you are moving, leading to symptoms. Fast action on TV or movie screen, scrolling computer screen, large groups of people moing about, passing traffic or trains are common triggers.

Note - "labs" does not recur over and over. Consider consulting with a neurotologist.
