I was rejected for numerous items, numerous times before making it through kalyx; just keep hounding them until YOU have had enough. When you show that you have had a battery of tests and numerous retests done with good results - it is a feather in the cap of your argument,
One thing though - don't repeat that about your AME being a Marine ophthalmologist though; more likely his was a Navy Ophthalmologist who was serving with, or had served with, the Marines. The USMC has no medical corps.

Good luck with the fight ahead.
