Depth perception

Depth perception can be an issue for some children with nystagmus, which is why they may start walking a little later than their peers. This is because they may find steps difficult to judge and struggle with their balance.

Issues with depth perception
Issues with depth perception also arise with sport as seeing and following fast moving objects can be challenging for an individual with nystagmus. However, there are many other activities, such as running and swimming which they can get involved with and enjoy.
