For Nystagmus Awareness Day 2022, please support our campaign to 'Step Up For Nystagmus'.
Story
While every case of nystagmus is different, the effect of nystagmus on depth perception means that negotiating stairs can be a challenge. That's why I'm taking part in 'Step Up For Nystagmus' to raise awareness of this aspect of the condition and to raise funds for nystagmus research.
Nystagmus means involuntary movements of the eye. It impairs vision, affecting focus and depth perception.
At least 1 in 1,000 babies are born with nystagmus. There is currently no cure.
The Nystagmus Network is a UK registered charity which provides support, raises awareness and funds research.
