Last time everyone said no to the laser eye surgery so is PRK diffrent also what is this I hear about only 10% can be and will that change thx.
Damn, you guys are bitchy.I am just asking a question,I know that I already asked it and I did acknoledge that ,but how am I supposed to know what is true when I get a whole bunch of diffrent answers?
For the folks who thought it was repetitive,nobody forced you to answer(and to be honest if that is the type of answer you are going to give I do not need your help),for the person who said I wanted you to predict the future I did not but I wanted to see what you think you could have simply said "I cannot tell what they will do",for the person who called me stupid I did not know you had to type everything perfectly, srry ill tri hareder nxt tyme.
So this is all I will say, if you think it is getting repetitive or something E-mail me your thoughts on the subject and I will think about .But it does not help to try to come up with the most witty thing.
What more do you want ?
I gave you a link to an Air Force .mil web page that said, yes you can have PRK and be a Pilot.
Do you think the Air Force is lying ??
Did you even go read the web page?
How is anyone here, supposed to know, what the Air Force will do 2 years, or 5 years from now?
You haven’t stated your age, so we don’t have any idea just how long it will be before you had a college degree and tried to get a pilot slot.
Your best bet, no matter what your current age, is to wait until one year before you apply for a pilot slot, and then research the situation again.
There will be advances in eye surgery by then, maybe by then the Air Force will have new rules.
But just remember, for ROTC students, you apply for a pilot slot as a Junior. And as part of the application procedure, you have to complete a Class l physical, the PRK would have to be done a year before that physical.

Horaayy..there are 3 comment(s) for me so far ;)
This is getting repetitive.
Talk to your recruiter.

Ask your recruiter but… the Navy, last time I checked, does NOT accept laser eye surgery from anyone outside of the Navy. 20/20 uncorrected to be a pilot in the Navy… after you’re in, your eyes can go bad but have to be 20/20 to get there.
And that only counts if you have the brains to with the eye site! Judging by your sentence structure and spelling, I would look into something else!
