Hi guys,
My eye vision is 2.25 L and 2.00R. I would like to do this Lasik eye Surgery so than I can see everything without needing a specs. My question is, is this possible to do and can I still become a Pilot or will I have problems later in Life ?
Thanks.

YES DON’T DO LASIK!!!!! You will ruin your military flying career!! PRK is the only authorized corrective surgery for pilots. I am going to flight school myself and have researched like crazy! Current prices are around $3500 for both eyes. The military also requires one year healing time after surgery; so plan accordingly! Good Luck!
If you have a diagnosis of Astigmatism, Lasik cannot be used. O’wise, it seems to work well. They will check thoroughly you know. Do get professional advice on this.
if you go lasik you will not be able to fly,,, they will be able to tell in an airmans checkup
“Vision correction with lasers became available in the U.S. in 1995. Since that time some 3 million plus Americans have been party to the procedure, which reshapes the cornea. Lasik is the most used version version of the surgery, it takes about 10 minutes for each eye. This new technique was approved in October of 1995.
This new technique of new eye allegra is known as wavefront-guided laser eye surgery (aka Lasik), researchers say that it reduces the most common side effects of standard laser procedures, including problem night vision. The surgery also offers patients higher chances of achieving 20/20 vision.”
