Nystagmus eye muscle surgery - Expectations, aftereffects, tips? (self.Blind)
submitted by rimrefuser
I have unilateral ONH that causes nystagmus (that seems to be getting worse?) and might be getting eye muscle surgery for it later this year. From what I understand, the main effects it has is fixing a bad null point (I've struggled with this my entire life, to the far left, so this would already great) and somewhat reducing the wiggling somehow. However, I've also read it's not permanent, and it's hard to guess how it would go because of the different ways people can have nystagmus.

So basically, has anyone here had this surgery? IF so, what was it like afterwards, and would you recommend it?
