Eyepatches
Have you ever considered an eyepatch to help your double vision from thyroid eye disease?
Yes, I do already when I drive and watch tv.
Hi there, thanks for sharing! How long has this been working for you? All the best, Lauren (team member)
Thank you for asking. About 4-5 months now, but it's no longer safe at night to drive so that is altering our lifestyle quite a bit.
Thanks for following up. It must be challenging to limit your driving to the daylight hours. Do you have anyone to help you out or can you take ubers if you need to go out at night? -Lauren (team member)
My eye doctor applied a clear piece of contact paper over one lense and it works amazingly well. I am unable to drive at night as well
Thanks for sharing your personal experience. How are you making out this winter? -Lauren (Team member)
Yes, I discovered the same thing as this member as a way to have single vision to drive (daytime), watch tv, etc.
Sounds like you found a work-around for your condition. This is something I am very familiar with in my own decades-long chronic illness journey! We have to advocate for ourselves or else who will! You are not alone! Thanks for sharing. Keep on keepin' on, DPM
