When asked whether or not Sjivan sees blurry or double on near print, he said he sees double when he really focuses on it.. ie, book will become two books. Even for his far vision, he will see two persons if he really focuses on the person. Not that he sees double when he starts losing focus/tired. (Physiological diplopia?)
Sjivan came for eye examination at night & he is in the morning session.. so we ask him to come early another day to confirm a few eye findings again.
Receded NPC.. low BO PFV@N, low BO VF@D.. CI?

Sjivan came back to let us to recheck on a few of the eye findings.
