What Is the Meaning of Nystagmus, and What Causes It? - #15882
I recently heard about nystagmus, but I don’t fully understand what it means or what causes it. Now I’m wondering—what exactly is the meaning of nystagmus, and what are the possible causes? From what I understand, nystagmus is an involuntary movement of the eyes that can make it hard to focus. But what triggers this condition—is it caused by vision problems, neurological disorders, or something genetic? Can stress, fatigue, or medications also lead to temporary nystagmus? I also read that some people are born with nystagmus, while others develop it later in life due to brain injuries or inner ear problems. How is it diagnosed, and are there effective treatments to manage or reduce eye movement? Since I prefer natural treatments, I looked into Ayurveda’s approach to nystagmus and eye health. Are there Ayurvedic therapies, herbal treatments, or lifestyle changes that can help improve eye stability and reduce nystagmus symptoms? I found that Triphala, Brahmi, and eye exercises are often recommended—do these actually help in managing nystagmus naturally? For those who have experienced nystagmus, what treatments or lifestyle changes helped the most? Did medical treatments, vision therapy, or Ayurvedic remedies provide better symptom relief? I’d love to hear real experiences on managing nystagmus effectively.
