Pro-Rec SNA & SNFO
I am submitting my pilot package this June for the NAVY. My main concern right now is my vision.
I have 20/30. I went to the doctor to get an exam and I can be corrected to 20/20 except for my right eye. It has a slight astigmatism. I could read about half of the 20/20 line with just my right eye. Left and both eyes are okay for 20/20. The doctor told me to fell correcting lenses until MEPS, so that is what I am doing. He said it will rest my eyes and adjust them to better see through a correcting lense.
If I cannot pass the eye exam, what are the possibilities of getting PRK? Is there anything I can do now to up my chances of getting it? Do higher ASTB scores make me more "worthwhile" to get PRK?
