Product Description
This volume brings together work from leading researchers in the fields of developmental disorders of binocular vision, strabismus, and both infantile and acquired forms of nystagmus. It contains four sections. The first section, Basic Concepts of Stable Vision and Gaze, deals with psychophysical aspects of infantile forms of nystagmus and the relative contributions of extraocular proprioception and efference (corollary discharge). It also contains an accessible review of current notions of spatial and temporal visual functions and spatial constancy in infantile nystagmus syndrome and latent nystagmus. The second section, New Models and Techniques for Studying Gaze Stability, reviews animal and development models for strabismus, amblyopia, and nystagmus. It also contains novel optical methods for managing the visual consequences of nystagmus and a study of the potential ill effects of video displays on children's response to near viewing. The third section, New Therapies for Congenital Nystagmus, presents basic genetic studies and clinical trials of drug and surgical treatment of those patients with infantile forms of nystagmus. The final section,General Aspects of Normal and Abnormal Gaze Control, pulls together a range of contributions dealing with normal gaze control, infantile nystagmus, and acquired disorders of eye movements, including new treatment measures. This book will be a valuable resource for all scientists and practitioners interested in developmental disorders of vision. ... Read more

Wonderful for Children
I'm very thankful for this book. My daughter is 6 and has had Nystagmus since birth. The book really help her understand her eye condition more. She took the book to school to help her teacher and classmates understand her eye condition. It is very helpful and I recommend this book for anyone that has any of the other eye conditions that it explains about.

Great Resource for VI and Special Ed Teachers
All Children Have Different Eyes is an excellent resource for Teachers of Students with Visual Impairments, other Special Education Teachers, or other people in the VI field, including parents.The book explains in elementary school language about different visual impairments and modifications needed for these students.I use it as part of a lesson for general ed classrooms with VI students in them.As seen at Dallas TAER conference April 2008.

Good role models to increase understanding and acceptance
This is a very encouraging and informative book. Examples of thoughtful behavior and explanations of differences can help change childish curiosity and unkindness. This book focuses on what can be accomplished by children who have visual difficulties. First, the authors have us meet Tommy who has nystagmus. A sound spelling is given along with a little story of how Tommy encourages positive reactions and how he handles negative reactions of children. After Tommy's story, we read stories of other children with other low visual difficulties such as cataracts, myopia, and strabismus. There is a glossary. Resources include books and websites. Activities in the back of the book, give reference to pages in the story with examples of improving social compentency skills. The scenes in the stories and the skills include making friends, coping with mean people, coping with other people's lack of knowledge, etc. I highly recommend this for children, teachers, and parents.

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Nystagmus," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Nystagmus in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Nystagmus when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Nystagmus, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more

Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : En médecine, le nystagmus est un mouvement d'oscillation involontaire et saccadé du globe oculaire. Le nystagmus est une perturbation de la coordination des muscles de l'œil. Il peut être causé par une pathologie, des mouvements très rapides ou l'abus de certaines substances. Les oscillations peuvent se produire dans un plan vertical, horizontal, de torsion ou dans une combinaison de ceux-ci. L'œil se dirige lentement vers une direction, puis revient brutalement à sa position d'origine. La direction du nystagmus est définie comme étant celle du déplacement rapide (cependant, le trouble a d'abord tendance à engendrer le mouvement lent, avant que le mouvement rapide vers la position d'origine n'intervienne pour rétablir la situation). . Nystagmus optocinétique horizontal physiologique.Le nystagmus physiologique est dû à la mise en jeu coordonnée des six muscles oculomoteurs qui assurent normalement à la fois la mobilité et la fixation des globes oculaires. Ces muscles permettent de : Un exemple de nystagmus physiologique e...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more
