(Besides, I felt that Julius would get a good laugh, and I think he needs one)Lucky for me that I took Intralasik, and not Lasik. Intralasik was considerable more expensive, but since I still do have a dream of being able to fly a fighter jet one day, anything less wouldn't cut it.Eyes fixed with normal Lasik are subject to bursting under the pressure a fighter pilot can be exposed to. Intralasik is the only eye operation the US air force will accept on their fighter pilot recruits. Pity the norwegian one doesn't, and I'm also to long to fit perfectly in the cockpit.

If my mom had listened to them when she was pregnant with me, I wouldn't be alive today. I am actually considered a "miracle baby," that is, lucky to have been born alive. The entire situation is a bit of a story, but the fault was entirely upon the military doctor's bungling and idiocy. And that isn't the only incident with them, there are several more spanning my dad's service in the Army. He even had a friend, a colonel if I remember right, that had a bad knee and went in for surgery, and they operated on the wrong knee, so he now has two bad knees.

Norwegians and Swedes have an internal rivalry, even if we are friends most of the time.There's a Dane on DA that actually pictures the Scandinavian, and the rest of the world, stereotypes perfectly.http://humon.deviantart.com/gallery/#Scandinavia-and-the-World--4 Quote If the U.S. military uses it, especially the medical class, I wouldn't trust it.

It's the only one they accept. All professional eye doctors will agree on that Intralasik is more precise and gives a better result, but for most people, it's not worth it.

X-Gamer Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Quote What exactly was the situation?For wearing my glasses? I had a case of a "lazy eye". That meant one eye would be weaker vision wise than the other. In my case, it was my right eye that was weaker. But as I said, my doctor said glasses were not necessary. That was 3 years ago. Now, I'm still living with no glasses on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conaly Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Hi, Quote I have amazing eyesight. :3Actually me too, although I wear glasses. My visual acuity is extremely high (all opticians were really surprised, when he tested my eyes), the glasses just adjust the slight nearsightedness.I also thought about laser surgery, but decided not to do that so far. It could cause problems with passing the first class medical. I'm still planning to start the pilot training at Lufthansa and they refuse people who corrected their eye by laser surgery.
