IS2,
Guessing at your age and your time in service, I think you have a few years before you reach the max NFO cut-off of 32. So, you can afford to wait to decide on the eye surgery. I understand your concern. As a Reservist, I would also guess that the surgery would be by a civilian doctor. As the Navy is just now authorizing and training their doctors to perform these laser surgeries, you might find better service on the outside. Ask your recruiter to contact CNRC and request an OCS date for you into FY-04. That should not be a problem. That gives you more time to decide. To decline the commission, then re-apply later for medical reasons, I cannot say how that will turn out. The selection boards are comprised of individuals, from your desired community, but individuals with latitude to decide who gets in. A member of the board may look favorably on your situation, another may not. Good luck to you.
