Can't resist this delicious opportunity to suggest that this week's "diplo-" subject be used to say that a diplomat is going to fit in very well here....as in "...diplo-dealing", or any of the variety of variations....!
Cheers...

Re: Diplopia. Yes, double vision. But uncorrected astigmatism usually produces a 'ghost' image, ie, more an overlapping shadow than a second separate image, which would more likely be a symptom of an eye muscle imbalance or nerve palsy. Clinically, this distinction is huge. Doubly yours, JGlaser, Prof. of Ophthalmolo jsglaser@pol.net gy

Doubly welcome to both of you.

uncorrected astigmatism usually produces a 'ghost' image, ie, more an overlapping shadow than a second separate image Uh-oh; I'd better get myself to an eye doctor.

Charlie--when you said a diplomat is going to fit in very well here , did you mean yourself?
