Vision Difficulties
The rapid and continuous movement of the eyes that occurs with nystagmus can cause a person to experience vision difficulties. Common complaints include blurry vision, trouble focusing on objects and depth perception, which can affect the body's ability to properly coordinate.
Whether a person with nystagmus experiences vision difficulties can depend on the underlying cause. Additionally, stress and fatigue can influence the degree to which a person's vision is impacted.4‘Nystagmus.’ www.aoa.org/healthy-eyes/eye-and-vision-conditions/nystagmus’sso=y
