So... the verdict is in and my vision is way worse than I had expected. 20/200. I still have a year left in college so I figure if I get the surgery done as soon as possible I will heal just in time (next summer). Quick question though... do I get WFG-PRK on my own or do I need to run that by a recruiter and maybe get a recommended doctor on the Civvy side? I'm sure the AF would like to have some idea of whats going on.

Also, I have the money to go forth and pay for PRK but just wondering if it is worth the cost and waiting for a year. I do have one more year until I complete my degree however (as stated earlier). The only problem is that the surgery will push back the timeline of me finishing my PPL due to time and cost restraints.

I have been looking into possibly Loadmaster on the aircraft I wish to fly for a few years and go about it that way? Being a Loadmaster looks like a kick in the pants and I believe I would thoroughly enjoy it... this is all up to whether or not I would qualify as a pilot or not.
