Exophoria

Hi there,

I recently went to a class 1 medical at Gatwick and was refused a Class 1 on the grounds of 'excess exophoria'. The value of my exophoria was 16. I was absolutely gutted to receive the news as I was due to start ATPL training this month and had no idea of the problem. I was wondering if anyone on here has been refused a class 1 due to exophoria and if anybody has had surgery to correct it? I am currently getting a second opinion from the NHS and am looking at surgical options.

Thanks,

Bobby
