Re: Help! Will I Ever Live My Dream

Batfink58,

Essentially, what that document is saying is that you would only be certified if your pre-op eyesight was max +/-5.0 dioptres, and that even if your eyesight is brought within +/-5.0 dioptres through surgery, you won't be able to get certified, if your pre-op eyesight was over +/-5.0.

As others have said, telephone CAA and discuss the matter. Also, there were some suggestions about getting some kind of "deviation" to the rule. I don't know the ins and outs of it, but if you do a search, you will find some in-depth discussion of deviations etc.
