Nystagmus and age: Nystagmus is usually a result of some other condition. If heat condition gets worse and cannot be treated, it will get worse.

Usually not: Nystagmus is basically constant throughout life. There actually is a slight slowing with time just as most functions slow done. But the vision and function will be unchanged
