                        Angela, I am 41 years old and have nystagmus all my life.  I have 3 children and one of them (10 years old) also has nystagmus.  It is true that there is not much you can do about it.  However, be encouraged to know that I have a professional job, am married and have 3 nice children.  You can lead a perfectly normal life with nystagmus and I hope you will be encouraged to know this. After a while, people cease to tease you about your "dancing" eyes and it becomes just a sort of fascination for those who mention it at all.  C in Canada
