Hi Midger,

You're not the first person with nystagmus to contact us about encountering barriers to adopting children.

Other people have found that finding out all they can about nystagmus and showing social workers, etc, information from the Nystagmus Network explaining the condition helps a lot. Usually, the key is to remove any concerns a social worker might have that nystagmus would put a child at greater risk.
