Was born with it. Got it from my dad. Eyes move from left to right really fast. Got so much hell for it when I was a kid. Thank God my kids don’t have it. Also have a REALLY high astigmatism. Can it be fixed or helped?

You wouldn’t be able to have lasik surgery, but you could probably have limbal relaxation surgery to improve the astigmatism. This is where they make cuts at the edge of your cornea (the limbus) to adjust it back to a rounder shape – this generally works quite well and it’s pretty straightforward. Unfortunately there’s nothing you can do about the nystagmus though.
See an ophthalmologist for an opinion – I think they’ll be able to help.
Ask your doctor.
