I can confirm that the RAF will now allow pilots to have laser surgery......... but only after they are in and trained. The reason?

They will guide you through the process, they will only allow certain procedures (can't remember which off hand) - otherwise your med cat will be effected and only if they are undertaken by specific (I think there were 3 of them) hospitals - otherwise your med cat will be effected.

You still have to pay for it though!!
