Asked By:kiesimpson in manchester uk

I have a 6th nerve palsy as a result of a TBI My ophthalmologist did squint surgery on me so i now have single primary vision but double vision on right lateral gaze which makes crossing roads very dangerous,(no discredit to the surgeon) I was wondering if it was possible to make my left eye stop in same position as my right eye when looking to the right, thus providing single vision on right lateral gaze.
