Initial Class One in foreign country

Hello all!

Having heard the recent news about the UK´s EASA membership coming to an end before the end of 2020, I´m wondering if anyone can help me.

I´ve got pretty severe myopia, but with an EASA medical would have no real issue getting one (initial). In the past, pre-EASA, the UK CAA had pretty strong requirements for eyesight and I doubt I´ll meet them should they be the same as years ago. Hence, I´m thinking of going about a rather round-about way of getting my medical done, but the process is confusing me. Could I simply get an EASA initial Class One in Spain (as I meet EASA requirements) and get EASA flying licenses there too? From what I can tell, I can only get a medical done in the state in which my medical records are held, apparently... so that´s me narrowed down to UK only...

Cheers,
Oliver Mitchell.
