Nystagmus and low vision problems
Dear Team
My brother has a medical illness called nystagmus. His eyes kept on moving regularly every moment and he has this problem by birth. Now he is 26 years. We have consulted with various doctors but all failed.
Along with nystagmus, he has very low vision also. Please suggest if treatment is available in medical science.
