Nystagmus or repeated sweeping movement of the eye during neurologic evaluation indicates a vestibular problem within the brainstem.

<h3>What is Nystagmus? </h3>

A condition of vision where the eyes make repetitive, uncontrolled movements is termed as Nystagmus.
Reduced vision and depth perception are the results and can affect balance and coordination.
Both eyes are unable to steadily view objects as the involuntary eye movements occur from up and down, side to side or in a circular pattern.
A patient with nystagmus might nod and hold their heads in unusual positions to compensate for the condition.
Fatigue and stress make this condition even worse. The cause of this is unknown.
