Congenital Nystagmus?

Question

I am looking for someone with the same visual disability. I have had this all my life and just want to compare notes. I had a friend in high school , he thought it was s**y to see my eyes move back and forth! Whatever!

Answer 1

I'm neither a Neurologist nor an Ophthalmologist so I won't even attempt a stab at addressing what issues you may be facing; I found a nice, medically sound article about this entity and I hope you find it helpful.
