Class 1 Medical - Eyesight

Hi all,

I'm booked in for my Class 1 Medical in three weeks and I'm equal parts excited and nervous. All should be good, my only worry is I've high myopia (-8.5 and -7.5) but corrected to 1.2 acuity in each eye. I know this high myopia usually results in being "referred to the medical assessor of the licensing authority and may be assessed as fit subject to a satisfactory ophthalmological evaluation" so hopefully all is well as according to my ophthalmologist I've healthy eyes!

Just curious if any other pilots have been through this process of being referred and if there are any issues I should be aware of?
