Eyesight class 1, hyperphoria, please help!!!

Hi,

I have recently been for a class 1 medical down in gatwick but have been referred to the consultant for further eyesight testing.
I believe the term hyperphoria (vertical eye imbalance) is the correct term, i apologise in advance if it is not.

If i have hyperphoria outside of the limits can i still get a class 1 medical?
Is there anyway i can prove it will not be a problem with my flying?
Can i have surgery to correct it and still fly?
Is there any eye exercises i could do to improve the muscles in my eyes?
Should i start eating carrots like there going out of fashion?
Is there any hope?

Any information would be very much appreciated as i really would do anything to fly commercially.

Thankyou in advance and my fingers are crossed.
