I second Anne's recommendation. If you want to see a rheumatologist at Cleveland Clinic, either Dr Carol Langford or Dr Alexandra Villa Forte (I see her) are among the best in the world. Also, there is a famous eye care center there. I'd start with the rheumatologist. They will handle the ongoing care of the disease, and will coordinate with the ophthalmologist.
When my wife was on prednisone (for another condition that no longer affects her), she had some double vision. Her ophthalmologist didn't solve the problem, but it cleared up after she got off pred.
Good luck!!
