Joined the forum after browsing for a while. I'm a 23 year old professional flight instructor with over 1000 hours total time and a 4-year aeronautics degree. Now that I can finally afford PRK, I'm going to pursue my long-time goal of flying for the Marines.
I will likely get the surgery in the first week or two of January. Since my vision's not too bad (20/70 and 20/40 right now), hopefully the recovery time won't be that long. I'm hoping to get into the summer OCS. Would this be reasonable, or will the time waiting for a PRK waiver push me back to late fall?
Thanks for the info. I look forward to learning more and hopefully joining the ranks of the aviators here.
