A member asked:
Can vertical or horizontal prisms be used for peripheral vision?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: While prisms can shift the image and give a little more peripheral exposure in one direction, it will do this by sacrificing the peripheral extent in the opposite direction by the same amount. Not useful.
