My results from my eye exam came back at 20/50 in my right eye, 20/25 combined. I know the instruction says 20/40. I called NOMI/NAMI and they kept saying NFO.
It's too late to change my package to NFO now.
I talked to my friend who got commissioned last Thursday through the STA-21 Pilot program and she said don't worry about it and don't let anyone tell you you can't be a pilot. She had some friends who had bad eyesight when they applied, got PRK in college and are good to go now.
Looking for a second opinion. It doesn't seem like my SNA Physical is going to fly if my current eyesight isn't good enough. The last thing I want to do is take a spot from someone only to not pass the physical.
Also, this was done at a civilian optometrist who knows nothing about Naval Aviation standards. I'm going to go to NAS Brunswick and have them look at my eyes.
