Why only Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum is visible?

When I was reading about the hydrogen spectrum, I came across the statement about Balmer series:

Only Balmer series of hydrogen spectrum can be visible to our eyes.

As per my research the Balmer series is visible by naked eyes because of the hydrogen atoms present in the universe. Though other series are also present in the universe, propagates in the hydrogen medium only. Why can't able to see other series ?
