One second rapid movement of eyes crossing then re focusing. only happens when i look at my phone too long and its only happened a handful of times. does not look like strabismus or nystagmus videos. its very quick. maybe less than a second even?

What you are describing is nystagmus. Which may be normal. I would spend $ and go to uptodate.com and read about all the possible causes and take a video of your own eyes and then share with an eye Dr. or your BP.

I made a video of my eyes. For the most part they stay straight but they did have a little movement after I stared awhile. It was a small movement . It wasnt a jerk or rapid movement. Is this nystagmus? When I focus on something they dont move?
