Hi everybody
,
Is there anyone who made it thru medical class 1 after laser eye surgery
? How bad was your vision before the surgery and how good was its result? I myself underwent such surgery (abbreviated PRK) 13 years ago and it changed my refraction on both eyes from -7 to -1.25 diopters (stabilized). Since the limit for aspiring pilots with myopia to pass the vision requirements at initial medical class 1 are -6 to +5 diopters before surgery(!) I am definitely disqualified
...unless I lie to examining doctor and say that my refraction before PRK was -5 diopters or so. Any chance to get away with such lie?
Thanks for any opinions and helpful information. Good luck at your medicals
