Congential Nystagmus gabapentin and memantine

I have Congenital nystagmus and tried gabapentin but it seemed to be making the Nystagmus worse.
I started taking bupropion at the same itme, and suspect the bupropion may have interfered with the initial trial of gabapentin. I need the bupropion for the anxiety associated with Nystagmus, but I know it causes blurred vision and convergence problems. Should I even bother to try memantine? Thanks.

The best of course is your treating physician.

There are lots of articles and tests on both those drugs. Gabapentin, memantine. Many of the clinical trials seem to have positive results. Is there anywhere else I can inquire?
