Don't know how to word this... you know how some people can concetrate really hard and make thier eyes wiggle back and forth really fast? I notice my son do it a couple of times when he was an infant. Today my hubby took him to the grocery store( he is 5 now) . while they were chatting in the lineup my sons eyes did this again. It lasts for only a couple of seconds. He doesnt realise he is doing it. He isnt out of it when it happens. He seems to be completely aware when it happens. I have noticed it here and there. I just didnt realise that he didnt know he was doing it. Has anyone had experience with this.... should I be worried at all?

It's called nystagmus, and from what I've read it isn't a big problem, but I'd have it looked at.

Thanks... I had googled that yesterday as well. Its really interesting... I havent noticed any vision trouble or anything, but his vision has never been checked. I guess I will have to bring him in.
