Introduction: The aging process is characterized by a decrease in physiological function, which has an impact on balance disorders and can increase the risk of falling in the elderly. Purpose: This study was to analyze differences in the balance of the elderly before and after the implementation of gaze stability exercise with an ergonomic approach based on a home exercise program. Methods: This research is an experimental study with a pre and post test one group design. Participants underwent training every day for 6 weeks. Balance ability was measured using time up and go test pre and post intervention. Results: There was a significant difference in the pre and post intervention time up and go test scores with p < 0.05. Conclusion: based on the results of the study, the implementation of gaze stability exercise with an ergonomic approach based on a home exercise program was significant in improving the balance of the elderly by 18.6% compared to before receiving the exercise.
