12 year old, need help please

My daughter is 12 years old. We have seen a few doctors that aren't sure how to proceed.

My daughter has:

• Accommodative insufficiency

• Alternating exotropia(left eye glass out with 45 diopter)

• horizonal Binocular Vision Disorder/Functional Vergence Dysfunction(only when she brings in the left eye to be straight and only in the distance)

• Fusion with defective stereopsis

With 45 prism diopter intermittent large-angle exotropia with a high frequency of manifestation and a right eye fixation preference.

We are on the waiting list for a surgical consultation in a few months.

What else can I do to help my daughter while we wait for a consultation with the surgeon. The consultation is still six months away. Should I try to find a different surgeon to get in sooner?
