Research projects

Find out more about the research projects the Nystagmus Network is involved in.

In partnership with our research teams, we are able to offer you the chance to steer the future of nystagmus research by taking part in one of these current ongoing studies:

Mr Vijay Tylor at Moorfields Eye Hospital is appealing for people with congenital idiopathic nystagmus aged between 18 and 50 years to help him investigate the phenomenon of visual crowding in nystagmus. Click the link to find out more.
Albinism researchers in Southampton (Jay Self and Helena Lee) would love to hear from anyone with any form of albinism who is over the age of 60. If you or anyone you know fits the bill, please complete the form.
A team at Moorfields Eye Hospital in London, headed by Maria Theodourou, is conducting an investigation into how the vision and nystagmus develop in young children. If your child is 3 or under, they can take part.
Children up to the age of 10 with or without Down’s Syndrome can join Asma Zahidi’s study into characteristics and impact of nystagmus in children at the University of Cardiff.
Would you like to participate in a study about support and information available to people with nystagmus and their families? It’s run by University Hospital Southampton but you can complete the survey at home.
