+5 or less is needed, so they said to me, you can have "INTRA-OCULAR LENSES"???

After a little talk on them, they seem to be lens implants... Do the CAA Recognise this type of procidure? Im impatiant and cant wait for the office to open in the morning so currious of anyone knows?

I used UltraLase for a consultation, are there any other reputable companies offering Lasik out there?

Cheers all...

But is it for an initial medical or for a renewal?
I'm not an opthician, but your prescription seems to be out of the initial limits established by JAR-CAA (max 6 diopters of total correction for the initial and however not more than 5 diopters of total correction to be authorized to have refractive surgery).

If I'm not wrong, you total correction is
R 7 diopters
L 7,50 diopters
