  1. Congential nystagmus:

    Rapid, rhythmic oscillation of the eyes; movements may be vertical, horizontal or rotary. It may occur with poor vision or it may be due to a disorder in the brain.

    LATENT nystagmus occurs when one eye is covered and rapid, rhythmic oscillation of the uncovered eye occurs.  Is he wearing a patch for lazy eye?
