Parents and Family

We are contacted by many people whose child has just been diagnosed with nystagmus. Our first message is:
Do not worry - Nystagmus is not the end of the world.
Nystagmus does present challenges, but these can be largely overcome. Have a look at our information, both on the web and as books and leaflets.

Adults

If you have had nystagmus since childhood, you have probably dealt with a lot of the problems it presents. However, many adults tell us it is encouraging to find out "I am not the only person with nystagmus" and to learn about how others manage. You will also want to keep up to date with medical and other developments, which you can do through joining Nystagmus Network.

Professionals

We support medical and other research into nystagmus. We provide links to medical and university sites which we are glad to expand. Please contact us if you have ideas for research projects or have other comments.

Members

Welcome to the Nystagmus Network site. You are already familiar with most of the information on this website, but please visit our monthly NetLetter and the Guest Book. We also use the site to ask for research volunteers and advertise events.
