Symptoms of Ataxia
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
7. Vision Loss
Ataxia will also cause some people to begin losing their vision. It can happen gradually over time, and it will often only result in partial visual loss. In other cases, however, the patient might lose their sight completely. Ataxia will also cause some people to lose their hearing, either partially or fully.
People with the condition might also sometimes find that their eye movement becomes slower than it used to be. This can cause the patient to have to move their head as they cannot look at objects or people fast enough. It is a symptom that should definitely encourage you to speak with a doctor if you have not done so already.
