I'm hell bent on trying to become a pilot. I'm from the UK and my eye sight is well over the limits for a direct class 1 medical certificate from the CAA.
Right -5.00 -3.25
Left -5.25 -3.00
I'm considering getting lasik to correct my eyes (surgery has given me the a-ok for wavefront with intralase surgery) and I know that I fall outside of the limits again for CAA class 1.
But I was wondering if it is possible to obtain an FAA class 1 here in the UK, and then revalidate to a CAA class 1 as there are no revalidation/renewal limits.
Any info would be much appreciated!
Thanks!
