  1. So follow up to my other post... my info was sent out to MEPS and was kicked back. My left eye had a shift in manifest diopter of over 0.50. That was unbeknownced to me because my doctor said everything was fine after I specifically told them the requirements. With this being said, am I now "unwaiverable"? Its definately depressing seeing the one thing in life you've wanted taken away like that. My Sergeant said he is putting a waiver request in for it, but what are the odds of actually recieving one? Thanks much as always gents!
  2. Hey guys, I received PRK last October and since then have been picked up by a guard unit. To spare some time I will make it brief. My doc messed up on my left eye. At my 6mo exam I was sitting at 20/25 (20/20 -2) and my right was 20/20 (20/15 -3). As far as I know they corrected my astigmatism 100% Now my issue is that I'm worried that that might be a DQ item when I go for my FC1 exam? Has anyone run into this problem? Only reason why I ask is because I might need glasses/ contacts again to correct it back (as long as it does not get any worse ) Thanks for the time!
  3. Hey everybody, quick question for you all. I was recently hired by a unit to fly C-17's and I am in the "processing" stage as we speak. I will be off to MEPS to get my physical and everything done within the next two months. Question is in regards to Penicillin; I was diagnosed to be allergic as a child and have been told by my parents my whole life that I am. It is also documented by every doctor I have ever visited. A few years back I accidentally received Amoxicillin when I had my wisdom teeth out ( long story...) and I took it for a solid week and only had an isolated rash before I finally realized what I was taking and stopped. I intend on disclosing it at MEPS, and just wondering if it is a DQ item, or if it is a quick waiver? ** Side note: I will also need a waiver for PRK that I received last year. Eye's meet USAF pre and post op limits. Thanks for your time!!
