| Nystagmus, Pathologic Convergence Nystagmus | Horizontal Nystagmus | Jerk Nystagmus | Pendular Nystagmus | Periodic Alternating Nystagmus | Rotary Nystagmus | See-Saw Nystagmus | Vertical Nystagmus | Conjugate Nystagmus | Dissociated Nystagmus | Permanent Nystagmus Involuntary movements of the eye that are divided into two types, jerk and pendular. Jerk nystagmus has a slow phase in one direction followed by a corrective fast phase in the opposite direction, and is usually caused by central or peripheral vestibular dysfunction. Pendular nystagmus features oscillations that are of equal velocity in both directions and this condition is often associated with visual loss early in life.
