Hi guys new to the site and was wondering about some info. I'm about to apply for SWO and had LASIK 3 months ago. I saw info which said LASIK was "waivable" i always thought it was just accepted as normal and not questioned. If the surgery went well (which it did 20/20) would it harm my chances of getting in SWO OCS (i'm pretty sure aviation is more strict- right?) Any Info would be greatly welcome- aspiring navy wannabe

LASIK may be waiverable for SWO but not for Aviation.

PRK is the only procedure that a waiver will be granted for aviation since the cornea is only reshaped, not cut.
