Can central nystagmus be treated surgically?
Disease description:
I went for an eye examination today, and the doctor diagnosed me with central nystagmus. Is surgery an option?
Central nystagmus can be treated surgically. It is typically caused by abnormalities in ocular development or visual nerve development. Treatment options generally include pharmacotherapy and surgery. In most cases, central nystagmus is not particularly severe and can be managed with medications such as gabapentin or baclofen. However, if the condition is especially severe, conventional surgical intervention may be required.
