Exclamation Update 07/29/2019

My medical paperwork went through about 2 months ago and I received a few letters from the FAA asking for more details about my monocular vision, this is likely due to the secondary glaucoma in my injured eye which means that it's not hereditary or permanent just a reaction to medication in that eye and does not affect the good eye at all.

My eye doctor got the paperwork sent out to them and I now have a 1st Class Medical Certificate and have contacted the FSDO for a medical flight test.

I will keep this thread updated as to how my medical flight test went and what to expect for others that might be interested in the future, so far it's looking like I have a solid chance at obtaining a 1st Class Medical which medically would clear me to go into any career I wish.

I do realize this is only medical but it's the only hurdle that I have outside of my own performance, but it's the only thing outside of my own control, and was the only factor that kept me from flying over the last 15 years.
