Hi @jimhd Jim, I can recommend one excellent opthamologist in Portland, Robert W. Bentley MD. Linda and I went to him for several years and he was such a great doctor. So thoughtful and so smart, and really a nice guy to boot. Not sure if he is a neuro opthamologist. You might not need him but I would recommend him to anyone. We really miss him now! Hank

@jesfactsmon Thanks Hank. I think that my next step will be to find a good neuro-ophthalmologist. Hopefully that won't be necessary for a couple of years.

One of the problems with the prism is that it's only in my primary glasses, not my sunglasses - I can wear flip ups - or my computer/piano playing ones. I suppose I could spend the $170 and have the piano glasses done.

Having binocular double vision means that my eyes get tired if I do anything within my six foot social distancing bubble very long. I do most of my online stuff on my phone, and I can do it with my bifocals or I can do it for a while without glasses. It seems as though my eyes get tired either way.

My 30 minute timer just went off, telling me it's time to move a sprinkler. It's an amazingly beautiful day here, in the 70s, with a light breeze. I finished the trimmer work, and decided I needed to sit in the shade during this one 30 minute set.

I appreciate your input in various discussions.

Jim
