For anyone considering lasik surgery I would recommend a google search for INTACS. I am no expert but understand that the FAA medics allow a return to work in less than a week. Briefly 2 crescent-shaped plastic "interior contact lens" segments inserted under surface of the conjunctiva (surface material); they can be changed if the eye presription subsequently alters or removed if for any reason you don't like them, and the eyebll returns to its original state. No loss of eye material involved and as the eye is one of the fastest-healing parts of the bod no probs after a couple of days and the FAA like it!
Anyone out there had it done?
