    Couldn’t recommend the surgery more myself. Dr Wiley and staff did an amazing job on my eyes, and I was back to normal activities the next day!

    I'm interested in the recovery time. Your doctor said you could fly today if you wanted to. I read the FAA document on LASIK which said all that is required is a letter from your doctor saying you are all set, which you have to submit to the FAA, or you can just get a new medical with your AME. How was was that process for you?

    But is laser operation allowed for aviation? I have heard they prefer spectacles over laser operation

    ⁠ What was his prescription before? I am afraid of side effects such as permanent night vision issues and chronic dry eyes.. I am 43 years old. I have prescription -5 for left and -5:50 for right and have been wearing soft contacts except at nights for 20 years. Do you think age of 43 is late for this surgery
  • Can u pls share how much u had to pay for this procedure??

    I hope he wont end up with halos in 2 years, that would make it pretty dangerous to fly at night
