Hey, does anyone else have congenital nystagmus, low vision, nearsightness, and astigmatisum? Oh, albino too!?


HI. I have all of the above.... Does anyone else?

I don't but they go together. I have nystagmus. If you have low vision, it could be because of the nystagmus. Nearsightedness and astigmatism are just the fact that you need eyeglasses. But if your eyes didn't develop right, the glasses wont help as much as they might if you had otherwise normal eyes.

It would be good for you to see an optometrist that specializes in low vision.

Well I am legally blind. I have drusens of the optic nerve. But that doesn't stop me. What about you , are you unstoppable?

No, but I do have 2 of those! I have congenital nystagmus, and nearsightness.
