Nystagmus Question?


I am writing a paper and I can not find this answer anywhere.

The question is: Define nystagmus. Describe the sequence of muscle actions that allow this movement to occur.

I know what nystagmus is but I can't find the sequence.

Need some help please.

it is an involuntary fast movement followed by the pursuit movement, you cannot say any specific muscles because the movement takes place in vertical, horizontal and diagonally.
