Billy Ocean for sure

Hey biograd, just curious, what are you trying to do in the Navy?

Yea well check that because I looked again when I was at the vision place and my vision is actually like -10.25 and -10.50. I just remembered wrong. Anyway though looks like we're in the same boat man

Ok here is my deal. I'm 21 years old right now and my dream my entire life has been to become a Naval Aviator. My HUGE issue is my eyesight, it pretty much sucks. I correct to 20/20 with no other weird problems but my vision is about -9.75. I am in the process of meeting and getting exams by...

I drove out to it from here in San Diego. I'd say the highlights were the F-15E demo, F/A-18F demo and the little aerobatic challenge they had which was pretty cool. The C-17 was a good demo too but the entire trip was worth it to see the Blues. Their performance was so spot on and just awesome...

Awesome story! Curious though, What was your eye prescription prior to any surgery?

I will definitely keep it updated. I've got some consultations with different eye doctors coming up so we'll see how it goes. One thing I think could be good is that I'm only 20 right now so I do have some time to play with so we'll how stuff changes in the future as far as procedures go. It's...

Not sure what the 20 number would be, but my prescription for my contacts is like 8.5. Pretty bad I know

Well the main reason I was curious about it is because my vision pretty much sucks. I wanted to look into it to see if maybe I could just lower my prescription a little bit. I'm just worried I'm gonna be screwed because of my eyesight

From browsing around on the internet I have come across a few different things involving natural vision enhancement. It seems like it's pretty much like exercises for your eyes. It seems interesting but I'm kind of skeptical about it. Anyone tried or know anything about these things?

Yea that is one thing, that procedure costs about twice as much as Laser surgery. I do think that my wearing contact definitely contributes cause I do wear them A LOT. Thanks for the links and for all the advice guys! I really appreciate it! I'm definitely gonna be getting multiple opinions

The main reason for them saying I am not a good candidate is because they said I have thin corneas, and when you have a surgery like PRK it makes them even thinner apparently. I did go to TLC for it. The Doc I talked to said that some of the problem could be from wearing contacts so much and I'm...

So I made a trip to a laser eye place today in San Diego for a consultation to see what kind of candidate I would be for PRK so I can hopefully fly. Bottom line is it doesn't look like I'm a very good candidate for laser surgery however I am a good candidate for a procedure called ICL, where...

I have been there a few times, it definitely has an extremely eerie feel to it when you are there. I think one of the coolest things I saw was an unexploded artillery shell stuck in a wall in the town. I'd definitely recommend visting there.

Okay, on this little practice test, on the Mechanical Comp. part. How exactly do you figure out questions 4 & 5? I am havin a hard time getting these, especially the electrical one. I really appreciate any help on these!

I'll be there cooking for it! My dad is the executive chef!
