Diplopia
Diplopia or double vision is another symptom that can be associated with nystagmus. When someone experiences diplopia, it's usually because the nerves that control eye movement have been damaged somehow.
The person's vision can appear as if two pictures have been stacked, one on top of the other. In these circumstances, the movement of their eyes may no longer be in sync. Diplopia can also be a symptom of multiple sclerosis.6Young Woman Presents with Intermittent Diplopia and Nausea.
