Hi SA,

Just to enquire, what is the criteria for CAAS class 1 medical for eyesight requirements?

I have a friend who is currently in trouble perhaps due to his eyesight (6/60 unaided and 6/6 with correction) and could not proceed on with his SQ cadet pilot application as CAAS did not clear his medical due to the eyesight issue. He may face rejection from SIA. Is it advisable to ask my friend to go for Lasik to stand a better chance to get cleared by CAAS?

Also do you have any contacts for my friend to see a well-known eye specialist ( For Pilots ) in Singapore for a detailed eye examination and report to be submitted up to CAAS for further review and approval ?

Info very much appreciated !! Thanks in advance.
