Hello everyone!
I have been disqualified by DoDMBERB for a patellar dislocation and the use of orthokeratology lenses. On Dodmerb's website, it says that my status is "does not meet medical standards" instead of "pending medical waiver". Does this mean that I am absolutely not going to have a chance at getting a medical waiver for my medical dqs? My patellar dislocation was a one time occurrence and I have not had an incident since it happened (about 3 years ago). I have not had complications since. Secondly, I use orthokeratology to correct my myopia and the effects are completely reversible after I remove the contacts. Do I have a chance of getting waivers for both these problems?
I have completed everything else in the application process and have received a congressional nomination from my MOC. This is the last thing that needs to be taken care of.
Thankyou!
