One doc I know decided to take out the prism (4^ base out o.u.) because he didn't think it was doing much. Of course the patient who had been happy as a clam got instant diplopia that persisted for the entire time he was encouraged to "give it a try". What part of binocular vision aren't they getting taught?
I have a small prism due to an organic injury, and my OD refused to put any prism in my Rx to correct it since he said "You'll get dependent on it", "Its a crutch". Maybe other providers think similarly?
