Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com.

Since the power difference in RE and LE is -6 ds, it is inducing double vision because of the difference in image size produced by the spectacles.

Since you are only 17 years old, we need to wait until 18-20 years of your age for your eye power to stabilize, and to think about LASIK to reduce power or the difference.

Best option available now is contact lens, which does not produce double vision.
