Nystagmus Treatment

Understanding Involuntary Eye Movement

Nystagmus causes repetitive, uncontrollable eye movements that can affect visual clarity and stability, and may be present from birth or develop later in life.

A Range of Underlying Causes

The condition can stem from neurological, visual, or inner ear factors, requiring a thorough evaluation to understand its origin.

Supportive, Individualised Management

While nystagmus cannot always be cured, our team offers strategies including corrective lenses, low vision aids, and select surgical options to improve visual function.

Support Beyond the Eye Exam

Given the range of possible causes, our specialists may coordinate with neurology or other specialists where appropriate, ensuring a well-rounded approach to your care.

Our Diagnostic Approach

A detailed neurological and visual assessment helps our team understand the pattern of movement and identify any contributing factors.
