rainboe,
thanks for you condescending tone and pompus advice.
as for ur tosh about lasik and medicals.
given that our friend has at present NO chance of a job in atc or flying and that lasik is a safe and readily available procedure exactly what has he got to lose. in his place i would have taken the chance. since i scraped through my medical at cme by the skin of my teeth i know exactly how he feels.
i am also assuming that he would also take some more advice than my one liner. r u a doctor? an optician? i'm not but i'm guessing they may be worth asking!
i'm not sure, and i'm not going to check as i've got a class 1 thanks, i believe the faa allows pilots to fly after lasik procedures.
you sir, have annoyed me.

(edited to show a modecum of respect for a retired gent.)
by the way 1000 post in a year! your retired sir, go on live a little!
