A member asked:
Ten days after having bi lateral strabismus surgery, my double vision is back. can i use my specs that have a prism, or do i have to try and manage ?

See your surgeon: The prism glasses you already have may not work, because the measurements have probably changed. If you haven't already done so, try on your glasses--they may help a little with the double. If you do not have a follow up appointment scheduled with your surgeon, you should make one.
