Double vision I have had in my right eye since diagnosis of MS, 30+years ago. 3 years ago I was finding that it was affecting my spacial awareness and also when outside the change in ‘light’, for example when leaving a building and going into ‘sunshine’ my eyes took a while to ‘balance’. The effect made me feel dizzy.
After relying on eye patches and wearing sunglasses I was, ( through my physio speaking to ophthalmologist) tested for an occlusion contact lens. This has been of a great benefit. The lens is cosmetically designed to look exactly like the eye it is occluding. I hope this info is of help to other’s.

Thank you for this. I enquired about such a thing, I think the eye specialist are still hoping my vision will settle. Good to know it can be investigated.

I suffer with double vision & have had a prism added to each lense of my glasses which has solved the problem for me (while I’m wearing my glasses)
Specsavers opticians sorted this during a routine eye exam.
MS symptom with hindsight but didn’t join the dots at the time.
MS wasn’t even in my radar at the time.

I didn’t even know contact lenses for double vision was a thing! I assumed (obviously wrongly) that it could only be rectified with glasses and a prism. You live and learn
