Is it possible to fit multifocals for a person with a lazy eye? My doctor is setting me up to transition into monovision and having me use my weaker eye (lazyish eye) for closeup work but because the eye is SIGNIFICANTLY WEAKER than the other, it is very difficult to read, etc. When I look through that eye, I can see, but it has a sort of "strobing effect" like it's short circuiting or something. We tried multifocals but we couldn't get them to work. I keep wondering if maybe we needed to try a variation on the prescription recommendation. I'm curious.
