    In my last post I asked about surgery for strabismus. Now the ophthalmologist is talking about me being able to skip this surgery since my instances of double vision are sporadic. I wear glasses with 4 prisms in them and have had my eyes checked and rechecked and rechecked by my trusted optometrist, who is very thorough, and my vision has remained the same through the almost 2 years that I have had TED. 4 prisms is sufficient he says. I have not had to change glasses in the 2 years.
    The ophthalmologist is now talking about a botox injection instead of the surgery on the nerve for the remaining double vision.
    Has anyone had any experience with a botox injection? I do remember this being mentioned at the conference in San Diego in 2010 but my notes on this are sparse.
