Ok I have to get PRK done within the next month or so. I've talked to my recruiter who seems like a pretty smart guy, but I don't think he's had to deal with any type of eye waivers. So when I asked about getting PRK done, he said just go get it done. I was under the impression that I had to get a pre-op done and submit it to MEPS before I did anything. My eyes aren't bad but had the pre-op done before I went to my recruiter and he just made a copy. Does that form need to be submitted?
Also, I was told by a friend (who just graduated OCS) to try and get LASEK (with an e) instead of the standard PRK. I looked into the NAMI waiver guide and under 12.15 it does list LASEK as a variant of PRK. So would anybody else recommend trying to get LASEK done instead of the standard procedure. Anybody know the benefits? I don't want to do anything stupid and get DQ'd by LASEK, when I know for sure that the standard PRK will be fine.
Thanks for any input.
