I read your question carefully and I understand your concern.
Recovery can take several months, most improvement happens in the first 3-6 months, but in some rare cases may continue beyond that. As for using a lens that depends on how bothering the double vision is for you. It won't affect recovery serves only to alleviate your discomfort.
I hope to have been of help.
