Abstract
|
|
|
|
Surgery is the one of the option of treatment of nystagmus. When it comes to the patients with abnormal head posture including head turn, chin-up, chin-down and head tilt, we could consider the repositioning of the extraocular muscles into null point. In the patients without abnormal head posture, four-muscle recession or tenotomy could be considered. The surgical treatment of nystagmus may not only reduce the amplitude of nystagmus but also improve visual acuity.
