Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I have weird uncontrollable eye movements similar to nystagmus. I feel bad when I walk behind the people. My eyes have a flickering problem. It makes people feel uncomfortable around me. I have a peripheral vision starring problem too. I am attaching my picture.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the attachment (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Your eyes look fairly stable. You have a normal involuntary pursuit movement of the eyes in which your eyes can track anything which moves in front of you. There is no need to worry. If the people around you feel uncomfortable, try to look momentarily towards them, and then shift your gaze to someone or something else. People feel uncomfortable when they have a feeling that someone is staring at them. Still, I recommend you consult a neuro-ophthalmologist soon.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
