Here's an update,

I was fitted with glasses back in May, which corrected my vision plus i had the hospital fit and supply me with contacts (bloody horrible things).

Since May i have noticed the glasses not helping and today decided to visit the Opticians for a check up and found my eyes have declined so much since may, that glasses will no longer correct my vision. Not good news!!!!!!!!!!

I can't believe it, Back in Jan this year i had perfect vision.

I am now trying to find out about CR3 surgery and have an appoinment with a surgeon at St Thomas in London on Thursday (Mr David P.S O'Brart). Anyone know him???????

What i need to know is.....has anyone had this done and kept their Class 1????????? I have just spoken to CAA (Campaign Against Aviation) but they were un-helpful and a bit unsure.
