The book is useful for all professionals in highlighting a number of ways to help a child with nystagmus. It is written in easy, upbeat language with fun illustrations, that all of us can enjoy.
'Can I tell you about nystagmus' is an extremely helpful source for both carers of, and people with nystagmus. The user-friendliness of the book aids to understand nystagmus, gives useful tips and shines a positive light on living with the condition.
Can I tell you about Nystagmus is a welcome addition to the series and highlights a much misunderstood condition. Seen from the family's perspective, the description of the way nystagmus affects the daily life of a young child will be informative and reassuring for other parents.
