ophthalmologist-icon
I saw a nuero ophthalmologist and...
I don't quite understand the results. I have diplopia in both eyes. In my right eye, my vision is 20/40. In the left, it's 20/50. I also wear prisms and have really thick lenses. I sometimes wear a patch and I often have to blow things up to read them. How bad is my vision really? Would I be considered visually impaired?
