gabapentin has been researched along with Congenital Nystagmus in 6 studies

Gabapentin: A cyclohexane-gamma-aminobutyric acid derivative that is used for the treatment of PARTIAL SEIZURES; NEURALGIA; and RESTLESS LEGS SYNDROME.
gabapentin : A gamma-amino acid that is cyclohexane substituted at position 1 by aminomethyl and carboxymethyl groups. Used for treatment of neuropathic pain and restless legs syndrome.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Although studies have shown that memantine and gabapentin can reduce acquired nystagmus, no drug treatment has been systematically investigated in congenital nystagmus."9.12Congenital nystagmus: randomized, controlled, double-masked trial of memantine/gabapentin. ( Degg, C; Gottlob, I; McLean, R; Proudlock, F; Thomas, S, 2007)
"The authors retrospectively analysed Snellen visual acuity (VA), subjective visual function, and eye movement recordings of 23 patients with nystagmus (13 secondary to multiple sclerosis, three associated with other neurological diseases, two idiopathic infantile, and five with associated ocular diseases) treated with gabapentin or memantine."7.73The effects of gabapentin and memantine in acquired and congenital nystagmus: a retrospective study.
