Nystagmus - fast, uncontrollable movements of the eyes, sometimes called "dancing eyes" Some eye movement disorders are present at birth. Others develop over time and may be associated with other problems, such as injuries. [icdlist.com]
Thus, there were no significant group differences between the on- and off-drug state present on univariate analysis for acuity, accommodation, or refractive error. [nature.com]
If light rays are not focused on the retina, a refractive error is present. The refractive errors are: myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. [jec.co.id]
Test again using a pinhole: if they do better, an uncorrected refractive error may be present. [patient.info]
Entire Body System
- Asymptomatic
Anisometropia is the most insidious refractive condition because it is often asymptomatic. The term antimetropia is used when one eye is myopic and the other is hypermetropic. [nhp.gov.in]
Those who possess mild amounts of refractive error may elect to leave the condition uncorrected, particularly if the patient is asymptomatic. [en.wikipedia.org]
Asymptomatic, low-risk patients (no ocular comorbidity or family history) should have eye examinations at least: Every ten years (19-40 years old). Every five years (41-55 years old). Every three years (56-65 years old). [patient.info]

Aniridia: A congenital condition in which the iris is absent or partially absent. May also result from trauma to the eye. Anterior Chamber: The space in front of the iris and behind the cornea. [eyeconsultants.net]

- Photophobia
Additional symptoms include poor vision and photophobia. anisocoria Unequal pupil size. Causes include glaucoma, head or eye trauma, an intracranial tumor, infection of the membranes surrounding the brain and previous intraocular surgery. [allaboutvision.com]
Where there is a large refractive difference, the patient may experience diplopia, headaches, photophobia, reading difficulties, nausea, dizziness and general fatigue [ 7 ]. [patient.info]
Individuals with albinism including ocular albinism commonly have decreased visual acuity (20/70 -20/200), strabismus, photophobia, and nystagmus. There is no known treatment. Individuals may benefit from low-vision aids. [eyevertise.com]
- Redness of Eye
Corneal Ulcer: A condition of the cornea that occurs when localized tissue has eroded, usually causing a red, painful eye. [eyeconsultants.net]
Neurologic
- Headache
Other symptoms may include double vision, haziness, glare or halos around bright lights, squinting, headaches, or eye strain. Glasses or contact lenses can usually correct refractive errors. Laser eye surgery may also be a possibility. [icdlist.com]
Common signs or symptoms of astigmatism include: Blurry vision Distorted vision Eyestrain Headaches Squinting Treating astigmatism Treatment for astigmatism begins with a thorough eye exam. [themidwestcenterforsight.com]
Visual discomfort symptoms, such as headaches, sore eyes, and blurred vision are commonly associated with prolonged reading or other near work. [clinicaltrials.gov]
Symptoms Blurred vision or difficulty in seeing distant objects (Children often cannot read the blackboard, but easily read a book).They tends to go near the objects to see clearly Eye strain Headaches (uncommon) Squinting tendency Close working habits [aurosiksha.org]
Feeling of a foreign body in the eye (so called blepharoconjunctivitis), headache sometimes accompanied by vomiting. The main cause of this condition is accommodation extra strain for near sight when the reserves are limited. [en.excimerclinic.ru]
- Dizziness
Symptoms include: double vision, headaches, eyestrain, nausea, dizziness, and blurred vision. Clinical signs: esophoria greater at distance than near, low AC/A ratio, and reduced negative fusional vergence at distance. [eyevertise.com]
Where there is a large refractive difference, the patient may experience diplopia, headaches, photophobia, reading difficulties, nausea, dizziness and general fatigue [ 7 ]. [patient.info]
- Dystonia
Accommodation disorders are accompanied by changes in ciliary muscle blood supply, abnormalities of vegetative segment regulation, parasympathetic brain vascular dystonia due to the decreased tonus of sympathetic nervous system. [ingentaconnect.com]
Treatment
[…] with e.g., RAF rule Facility of accommodation with "lens flippers" Accommodative fatigue Apart from overuse, factors that influence onset of fatigue include refractive status relationship with convergence Symptoms of accommodative fatigue Asthenopia Treatment [academy.org.uk]
As with myopia and hyperopia many treatment options are available. [themidwestcenterforsight.com]
There is no known treatment. Individuals may benefit from low-vision aids. Treatment options for strabismus and nystagmus does apply to these individuals. For more information about albinism, click here. [eyevertise.com]

Prognosis
Retinal atrophy patches in the macula cause loss in central vision Expectations (prognosis) Early diagnosis of myopia is important, since a person can suffer socially and educationally by not being able to see well at a distance. [aurosiksha.org]

A refractive disorder is an ocular condition caused by changes in the shape of the eye, which prevents light from being focused sharply on the retina, creating unclear images. [news-medical.net]
Besides, as it happens with myopic people, some simple VISUAL HYGIENE AND ERGONOMIC RULES will help prevent her reaching that visual stress. Modification of the patient's habits and visual environment is occasionally useful as an adjunct therapy. [rosavisionenglish.blogspot.com]
