Hi there.
I am 17 years old, and I have double vision of about four diopters (I think). The problem apparently can be solved through prisms in the eyeglasses (which I currently have, but not enough). Here's the problem though: I play soccer and rely on contact lenses to do so. Prism can't be included in contacts, so I'm forced to play with bad/annoying vision.
Do you guys know of any solutions? I'm currently leaning toward surgery and have gotten the opinion of two eye specialists. One said the chance of success would be 85-90%; the other said it would be 25%. What is the worst that could happen in a "failed" surgery, an overcorrection of the double vision?
Also, apparently double vision sometimes corrects itself. How soon would that come about?
Please help me out. I really appreciate it.
