yeah...I heard about that one eye thing...that's why I'd just rather just keep my glasses. They don't hinder me at all, I have no problem with them.

 

i WILL get lasik pretty soon, prob within the next 6 years. thats soon for meh

 

don't they disqualify LASIK recipients because your retina can detach under high g-forces? I was told this when i tried to enter a HELO flight program in the marine corp. they weren't going to let me fly the Cobra so i bagged it.

BEST OF LUCK THOUGH MAN. Its my dream too, but i have bad eyesight as well.

 

This is true.

Non-flight servicemembers can apply to get LASIK done.


this is why I'm getting PRK

 

okay thats what i was thinking they were different just wasn't sure. Whats the difference? Do you know?

 

LASIK zips a flap, folds the flap, does some zapping , folds the flap back over, and bam you're ready to go.

PRK just zaps right off the top - more healing time required, and a larger chance for thinks like Halo around lights, poor night vision, etc.

 

oh, lol. no wonder thats so expensive, my dad's pricing was just the regular laser thing.
