Research Interest

Nystagmus Infantile nystagmus (IN) is a to and fro oscillation of the eyes which is estimated to have a prevalence of 2.4 per 1000. It has a direct impact upon visual function through constant motion of images on the retina as well as often being associated with retinal deficits.
