Atleast can improve your condition if not totally cure it. I suggest contact some of the ICL specialist surgeons in your state. We will be publishing a directory of surgeons in each US states soon. ICL costs a bit higher, I suspect this would cost around $5000+ USD.

I wore the two-inch-thick coke bottle glasses for MANY years after the patch did not work for me. Although my right eye is the lazy one, I wear one contact in my left eye which allows my right eye to stay straight. However, I cannot see out of my right eye and have not ever been able to, other than for peripheral vision, I suppose. Would I be a candidate for this surgery? Every eye doctor that I have ever asked has told me that I will NEVER be able to use my right eye and that I will NOT see any cure for this disability within my lifetime. I would LOOOVE to know what it is like to see out of two eyes... what do you think? Will there or is there a surgery to help me see out of this eye? I am considered legally blind in my right eye, however, doctors say that my eye is perfect, just that my brain has ignored the eye (as stated above). I THINK I am farsighted... yes? Not real sure - to me, I'm simply blind without glasses or contacts period. The docs use the same info in both of my lenses in my glasses to make the thickness even. My prescription for glasses is: OD BALANCE OD OS +450-050X145 0063 SV And the docs give me the same contact lens for each eye, (basically to brighten things up) but I typically only wear one. That prescription is: BRAND: PROCLEAR BASE CURVE: 86 DIAMETER: 142 POWER SPH: +400 OD: 24 BALANCE: 18 OS: 24 BALANCE: 18 PLEASE tell me what you think!

I always recommend to visit a renowned doctor so he can advice you better. Technically, it can be treated. However your age could be one of the factors doctor may consider while treating you. Please consult with leading ICL surgeons in USA and you should get an answer. Most doctors do free consultation to get patients, you may want to try that one. Above everything else, let me tell you something personally. Don't worry about people looking at you. Be confident and make you mark, people will love you more. The fear is your worst enemy. Good luck. Beverly,

Throughout my entire life, I have been EXTREMELY self conscience about this condition because of appearance reasons. I gives me the appearance of being crossed-eyed and other people are unable to determine exactly which direction I am looking. It is extremely embarassing for me to be talking to people and they do not realize that I am talking them to becuase they do not realize that I am looking at them. Is this ICL for Lazy Eye surgery an option for me. Please let me know. Beverly Chrisp My name is Beverly Chrisp and I am 47 years femial with amblyopia.
