Hey everyone I have a couple questions that I can't seem to have answered.
I am currently in my sophomore year of AFROTC about to go to Field Training this Summer, and it is at this point in my ROTC career that the NCO's tell me I am disqualified for RATED because of my vision. Now, the thing is am correctable to 20/20 both eyes both near and far but I just don't know when to start the process to proceed with PRK surgery. I understand that I can't go to Field Training so it would have to be after because of having to be on MRS . I also heard that there is a 6-MONTH MRS timing that i have to complete. Now my main qestion is, the information sheet I was given states I cant be on MRS and go to my flight physical....BUT can my package meet the boards while still on the 6-months MRS period ?
Also when do packages get sent in for the RATED boards and when do the flight physicals usually occur ?? For timing purposes.
Do you know anyone who has been through a similar situation ???
ANY help on this process would be REALLY appreciated. Thank you!!
