Toxoplasmosis
Hello,
(sorry for my bad english)
I have a scar on my retina, a consequence of congenital toxoplasmosis. This is not evolutive (scar is very ancient). And this don't affect my visual acuity (10/10 at each eye). But I have a poor binocular vision.
I would like to apply for SWISS cadet sheme. That's why I visited an aeronautic ophtalmologist in Switzerland. And he told me I couldn't apply for class 1 examination (in Switzerland, you must pass an eye examination before class 1). Fortunately, he didn't send the result to the class 1 medical center. The reason is that JAR rules about binocular vision could be modified in 2012 (do you know about that ?). So, in theory, I could try to visit a second swiss ophtalmologist.
In my project, if I can't fly in Switzerland, I would like to have modular training in UK. So I plan to pass the Class 1 in the UK. Do you know if I have any chance ? I heard some rumour that UK physicians are more "soft" than french or swiss physicians.
Thank you !!
