Hi! I'm 48 and have nystagmus due to a stroke one year ago. I'm wondering if it ever gets better with time?

      Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with Acquired Pendular Nystagmus. I had an MRI and Ct scan to assess for stroke or tumor and it came back negative. It is so life changing. I'm 68 and was quite active. In the last 6 months I feel it has aged me. I don't like being active as it gives me vertigo and my balance is shocking.
