If your child is Albino, you need to especially closely monitor his eyesight. After all, albinism very often provokes such a serious disorder as Nistagm.

The eyes of the crumbs are watching «not properly», What is associated with pathologies
Overall apparatus. Indeed, Nistagm
associated with eye motion impairment, although the problem itself is much deeper, and one of its reasons can be albinism.
With albinism, the Beware of Nistagma
Nistagm is the pathology of the glasses in children. In this diagnosis, the gaze is not installed in general and the eyes constantly perform spontaneous chaotic movements of various amplitudes, because of which the image on the retina is always defocused. Nistagm is the hardest pathology of the visual system associated with violations of the central nervous system, with the pathology of the eyeboard and the optic nerve.
Nistagm very often occurs in children with albinism - hereditary disease, manifested by a decrease or complete absence of skin pigmentation, hair, eye (eye-skin albinism) or only eye (eye albinism). Children with albinism have very white skin; eyebrows, eyelashes and hair are completely devoid of pigment. Due to the lack of pigment in the retina, the functions of the retinal nerve cells are disturbed, in addition, in children with this disease, there are originally disorders both in the central field of retina and in a visual nerve. As a result, Nistagm arises.
Nistagm in almost all cases is combined with both organic (irreversible) changes in the visual system (partial atrophy of the optic nerve, dystrophic changes in the eye day) and with functional (reversible) disorders. The last during nystagme develops against the background of concomitant pathology, primarily hyperopia, astigmatism, myopia or strabismus. In this case, a blurred fuzzy image is formed in the eye. To this is added permanent movement of eyeballs and image offset. As a result, a fuzzy picture is transmitted to the higher departments of the central nervous system, so the audit cerebral cerebral cells are not evolving and visual acuity decreases.
If a child is nystagm
With an integrated approach, very good results are possible when both therapeutic and surgical methods are used. Conservative hardware treatment of children with Nistagm is aimed at increasing visual acuity, reducing blood circulation inside the eye, increasing the activity of the process of metabolism in visual cells. Treatment should be carried out in conjunction with a neurologist, courses for two or three weeks several times a year. During nystagme, special operations on the muscles of the eyes are applied, aimed at reducing the amplitude and frequency of oscillatory movements. Treatment is quite long, a small patient must be under constant dispensary observation. The goal is to improve vision, so that the child can learn in an ordinary school, adapt among the peers.
The pathologies of the glasses have a serious impact on the formation of the entire visual system of the child. Therefore, treatment should be started as early as possible to prevent the development of complications and accelerate the functional rehabilitation of the child. Since the visual kid system is in constant development, in young children, all the methods used are more efficient. To school, the child must be rehabilitated as much as possible. In older children, a much larger time is required to improve visual functions and in some cases it is not always possible to achieve complete recovery.
And, of course, it is very good when experienced specialists are engaged in a child, but no parents cannot be lazy. It is necessary to deal with the problem constantly until complete cure, and not to cast everything as soon as good cosmetic results appeared. In this case, the interrupted treatment will not bring benefits, the problem with vision will not be fully resolved and everything will return «Over the circles».
