Quick question for those who know.
Is there a minimum uncorrected vision requirement at Emirates? I know many asian airlines require a minimum uncorrected vision.
Can pilots who has done lasik/PRK surgery done still fly for Emirates? Again some asian carriers do not allow lasik surgery...
Thx

Yes I know of someone who had it done, it's simple, you don't tell them!!
They are your eyes not the companies so it's up to you to look after them, in any way you deem fit.
I for one will be doing the same.

Quite a few people I know has had it done. It is quite easy as long as you can get 28 days leave. You will need it as your eyes only get back to 100% after about 2-3 weeks. Especially night vision.
