Dr. Hertle at NIH also does recordings.
I live near Amarillo, TX (right smack in the middle of the panhandle). Houston is quite far away, as Texas is a huge state. Is there someone closer who does these eye movement recordings? larger cities that I am a little closer to are Albaquerque, NM; Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX; and Oklahoma City, OK.
The recording of nystagmus (for both oculomotor as well as vestibular testing) was usually performed with electrode-based equipment.
Our two sons have CN. We are curious about how they see. Our oldest son tilts his head to obtain a null point. Is whats seen constantly in motion? We would like to be able to explain what our children are or are seeing to their teachers.

Also, I might have missed previous discussions on this subject, but what is the significance of charting the waveforms. I don't know much at all about this subject, so anything you can provide would be helpful. Does it help to determine what kind of N is present? All I know is that I have CN with either optic nerve hypoplasia or atrophy (I have seen both noted on two seperate occasions), esotropia in right eye (surgery at age three), and astigmatism. Given this info and info from a waveform reading, would an ophthalmologist be able to determine if I would be a candidate for N therapies such as neurofeedback? If you would like to respond to me directly, send email to bcrume@tcac.net. Thanks!

I am the inventor of InfraRed/Video Electronystagmography and Eye Dynamics, Inc., working with the House Ear Clinic in Los Angeles, has now commercialized the use of digital image processing for that same application.
Not only does it give more accurate information (bilateral, monocular 2 channel) but can also be used to observe any torsional eye movements, i.e. those about the visual axis.
To learn more about this methodology, see www.EyeDynamics.com.
I would be pleased to answer any email posts to this newsgroup regarding the technology, its use in eye movement evaluations, etc.
