Abstract
Congenital nystagmus (CN) is an aperiodic oscillatory eye movement disorder. Horizontal rectus tenotomy with simple re-attachment has been proposed as a therapy for CN. This therapy might affect vision and/or eye movements. Another paper deals with improvements in visual acuity. This and the companion paper examine changes in eye movements. In this study, we examined the effect of tenotomy on nystagmus waveforms using wavelet spectral analysis. No common effect was found across the patients on the wavelet spectra of the CN beat, suggesting that tenotomy surgery has no effect, or only a quite small effect, on the waveform structure of CN.
