Modelling Early Onset Nystagmus (EON)

Abstract

Six presentations at the Nystagmus Research Workshop (Abingdon 2005) were delivered in the session on ‘Modelling’. The following is a brief summary of these presentations, indicating (i) the wide range of approaches taken, (ii) the rationale for each approach, and (iii) possible experiments to help resolve apparent conflicts between differing theoretical models of Early Onset Nystagmus.
