Scientists hunt for Eye-Movement genes in families
NCT ID NCT04770519
First seen Jan 08, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study aims to find the genes that cause strabismus (crossed or misaligned eyes) and nystagmus (involuntary eye shaking). Researchers will collect DNA from families with at least three members who have strabismus, or from individuals with infantile esotropia or nystagmus and their close relatives. By comparing genetic data, they hope to identify shared variants that contribute to these conditions. No treatment is offered; this is purely an observational genetic study.
