Question Q: JAA medical class 1 UK CAA eyes

Hi,

Europe / JAR

Left eye: ca. 0.00 to -0.25 dioptres
Right eye: ca. -1.75 to -2.25 dioptres

No astigmatism
No other factors against a class 1 medical

- How is the UK CAA's policy about a marginal anisometropia of 1.75-2.25?

- Are there countries more tolerant about this?

- If I would take action in form of some kind of refractive surgery (Not flying, I would do this TODAY) - would they accept the new refractive error? Or would they say "Boy, you were a 2.25... we don't care what there's now..."?

- Someone here with a "been there done that" on this? :-)
