Anyone have any insight on those who would be classing up in November? I've been hearing that they wont start those classes up since the pool closes in December and they dont want to split up the training. Havent heard anything like that from any instructors or class officers though so I am...

Some people get selected before they go to MEPS. If that happens then you can get selected with your eyes the way they are. Unfortunately you would be dq'd at meps. Im not sure how it would work for you getting PRK done. I would probably just get prk now or as soon as possible, that way you...

I went to meps and did not pass the eye exam. But my prescription was for 20/40. went to civilian eye doc and had it rechecked and they said I had 20/40. sent that paper work in and got selected. Seeing as I didnt want to fail at OCS and NAMI I went and got PRK done, had everything...

I got it at 20 after I was pro rec'd pilot. my vision only changed a very small amount in the last 5 years. I was barely 20/40. Now I am 20/10 and 20/15. I was put on hold for 6 months during the mandatory wait time, then I got my waiver approved and was final select earlier this month. Its...

I am still here too! got 9 months still to graduate and I just sent my 6 mos post op into N3M on Thursday, good luck guys and gals

NavyOffRec is right by all means. My recruiter (not sure how accurate) said that if you have the right cards they might accept you on a case by case basis! Do what NavyOffRec says, but if you think you got it, you might! never stop trying!

I thought the same thing, I applied at the beginning of my Junior year and got selected SNA, on non-paid status. Just depends on what kind of package you have and whatever your recruited chooses to do.

2 weeks elapsed since surgery. Seeing at least 20/25 both eyes, good night vision and ghosting is very rare. Still getting some tired eyes but to my understanding that's normal. Been doing some civilian flying the last couple days as part of my degree and I am seeing better than I ever did...

Went in to get the bandage contacts out and got most of my questions answered. Vision is getting better daily and night vision is already much clearer. I just need to be a little more patient. Haha, I appreciate the words, yahoo or not.

good to hear. I'm just freaking out about my vis. it was pretty good the first two days with starbursts and slight halo's. Now my left eye is blurry and seeing almost doubleand they are both super sensitive to light. haha I just gotta be confident in it;s getting better. Had to type with my...

In Kirkland, from Woodinville, going to school at CWU. PRK with Dr. Leavitt at Bellevue Lasik and Cornea. You got any insight Coug?

right on! any idea on the starbursts? the halo's arent too bad. are you out at whidbey? Im down in sea but make trips up that way pretty often.

question for all who have had PRK. I am two days post-op and my night vision isn't terrible but I definitely notice some flight halo and starbursting, will this go away? I am probably just psyching myself out but I was just wondering what some of your experiences were.

NavyOffRec if you got pro rec'd DA Pilot in the latest board but do not graduate for about a year and a half do you think there is a way to get upgraded to paid status?

Got it! so pumped! thank you so much for all the info!

Gotta go to MEPS again? still learning the ways of the Navy

thank you NavyOffRec! So excited! My Stats were: 6/7/7 50 3.769 GPA in Flight Technology from Central Washington University 200 Hours PPL, Instrument, Commercial 1.5 years out from Grad LORS from Naval Aviator Retired, Professors, Employers and a Boeing Employee President of Aviation...

could ya check for me sir? nrd seattle, worl. I am still a year and a half from graduation but I figured submitting was worth a shot.

I have been hearing that BDCP has been canceled but they are offering it to a few candidates whom they see fit. If you put in for pilot in this last board but have not graduated yet are you going to be considered for BDCP or an early DA for pilot? Is DA even the right term? My recruiter...

Thanks Nugget! Thats all I needed to hear!

Got it. Do you by chance know if you can take different versions of a depth perception test? Again, I have no problems with any of the book and glasses type tests but the digital box of doom at MEPS was a struggle, do they use the same at OCS?

Hello All, I too failed the Depth Perception test at MEPS. I then went to a civilian doctor to get a full comprehensive eye exam and passed the depth perception with 20 seconds of arc, better than the minimum of 40. My question is, has the navy been known to accept this with my package as...
