Seeing double vision
SOURCE: binocular double vision
you binoculars are probobly out of alignment. Having them realigned costs about $100. If the binoculars aren't expensive, you might want to try this yourself. Basically, one of the front lenses is off-center, and you can rotate it in its mount until the alignment is right. (I.e., it's off center in the right direction.) You will need an optical spanner (which Americans redundantly call a "spanner wrench") or an improvised substitute in order to do this.

Hi,
One of the lenses or the mirror has been jolted loose. Back to the manufacturers with them to see what the repair cost will be.. Not sure if it would be cheaper to replace them but see what the estimate is..
I wouldn't be keen to go inside them in case you let in dust or moisture.

The prisms have shifted inside of the binoculars. This is not an easy job as you have to make corrections to the angle of the prisms for leaning field and collimation. Two suggestions:
1. If they are under warranty take them to a repair agent.
2. If you want to do it yourself, there are instructions on the web about how to go about effecting a collimation. Too long to go into detail here.

This is such a common binocular problem that I hope you don't mind me pasting my generic answer below. There's no point in re-inventing the wheel.
Your
binoculars either have a bent or broken yoke assembly (the bit which
carries the eyepieces) or one or more prisms have came unseated.
The
first repair involves replacing the entire yoke assembly: the part is
expensive in comparison to the retail cost of a new pair of binoculars
and with labour charges on top is not usually a cost-effective repair
except on really high end models at prices far higher than yours which
can be completely replaced for under US$70.
The second repair is
straightforward and fairly quick for anyone with the right collimation
equipment, but the screw(s) need to be secured with thread-locking
liquid afterwards, and not all low cost models allow access to the adjusters after manufacturing.
I
hope you manage to use this information to fix your binoculars or at
least that it assists you to choose your next course of action.
