Well nystagmus made the news again today, and when I read the headline about a cure, I grew a bit speculative. Further investigation yielded an article detailing a cure...of sorts. Apparently a group of Russian inventors were recently awarded recognition in a computer-implemented invention contest for their development of computer models to represent methods to diagnose and treat nystagmus.
Though at this point only a model, the potential applications of this technology are huge: the model makes use of several recent developments in biotechnology that have promising applications. A cure for the pathological expression of nystagmus could drastically minimize the vision-related side effects of many diseases.
