A lot of info can be found on the Wright Pat site: http://www.wpafb.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?id=20427 I just had my eyes done 3 June of this year, and the process is still largely the same as has been stated earlier in the thread. Go to your optometrist and get the process started, they pretty much send you all the info from there. Your DNIF period can range anywhere from 2-3 months for LASIK, to up to 6 months for PRK. I would opt for surgery at Lackland, as they have a fairly fast turn around time from application to surgery (I sent in my stuff and had dates for surgery within a month). On a side note, I am trying to apply for the RPA board this October, and am getting stonewalled due to my PRK surgery being within 6 months for a FC-IIU Physical. My question about this is, my optometrist has already cleared me for Flight Status. If I receive my waiver to return to fly, could I then use that as a basis for my FC-IIU? I currently hold a FC-III. PS: First post, obligatory hi!
