The contact waiver for the Navy is a work in progress. That is, the provisions have been promulgated by NAMI. but the actual procedure for dealing with it has yet to come out of CNRC. It is expected any day. The word is that, unlike the PRK waiver, the contact lens waiver will be considered by the board. That means that if there is one spot and two applicants that look the same but one has 20/20 and the other a contact lens waiver, the job goes to the guy with 20/20. That isn't the way the PRK waiver is handled. Got a PRK waiver and it is like you never had the surgery at all. Can't say what the rational is for that. We have to wait until CNRC sends the tablets down from the mountain. Until then, talk to your recruiter. Don't believe anything else you read here unless it is referenced to a CNRC directive or message. You can also ignore anything NAMI has to say about it because they are not the folks selecting young people to become naval officers. That would be CNRC.
