Congenital (infantile) nystagmus is a non-progressive condition, however it can often cause anxiety for patients and parents alike. Counselling can be invaluable to provide reassurance and instil confidence to pursue regular activities.
Although there is currently no medical or surgical intervention that can definitively stop the eye movements of nystagmus, optical and non-optical interventions can improve visual perception and clarity.
