@jimhd Hi Jim,
Many people with neurological problems have this kind of vision problem. Have you considered seeing a neuro-opthmalogist? A specialist might be able to provide you with some more suggestions. Were any eye exercises suggested?

@hopeful33250 Hi Teresa. I looked online and see that the neuro-ophthalmologists are in Portland. My ophthalmologist didn't suggest anything except the prism, which does bring my right eye in alignment with the left. His only statement was that if/when the diplopia gets bad again I'll just have to get used to it.

I've been living with this for a while, and I've adapted, but I got tired of it. I like the doctor I have, but maybe it's time to see a specialist. I'll give it some time and see if it gets bad again. The Casey Eye Institute has a location in Portland at OHSU.

Jim
