Nystagmus Awareness Day – Saturday 20th June 2026
Saturday 20th June is Nystagmus Awareness Day, the event that tries to make sure that as many people as possible get to know more about this complex eye condition, characterised by wobbling or flickering of the eyes.

- Provision of free factsheets and other materials which can be downloaded from the website. They cover issues such as benefits, treatment options, and an education hub.

- Virtual support networks that meet monthly.
- Benefits advice
