Post JAA versus FAA vision requirements?

Hi all, I've found the JAA vision requirements and the FAA requirements. The one thing I notice is that the FAA doesn't mention anything about stabismus (squint) or double vision. Maybe it's because I haven't looked hard enough (I have tried) but does this mean they don't have any specific requirements for this? If i have a slight squint, is there any way (ranging from different glasses to surgery) that I can correct this? I know the FAA's vision stance is more relaxed, but if I missed something I'd be grateful if anyone can give me a few pointers. I'm not colour blind and the vision tests I've done indicate 20/20 at 16" and 32". I wear glasses for mild myopia.
