I’m currently 16 and in a pretty sticky situation. I tore both shoulders from lifting and had surgery on one. Both are healing fine. Haven’t had any issues and doc said I can continue to workout. Will the shoulders affect me even though I can function normally? And will this lower my chances of flying fighters?

If I get PRK at age 17, would that still be a definite disqualifier for becoming a fighter pilot?

I would do ANYTHING to become a fighter pilot. I know that is an incredibly specific and challenging goal. I’m currently in 10th grade and have researched every possible way of accomplishing this, however, I have quite a bit of things working against me. First, my grades not good neither bad (I know this is terrible but, it was before I knew what hard work I had to put in). Second, I had shoulder surgery and tore my other one. Both are healing fine. I love fitness so that’s not an issue. Third is I would need some sort of eye surgery. Can I get it now and still get in? This is where it all plays out. Even though I’m a fitness junkie, I was suspended from all sports this year due to the surgery and probably next year too. But I still remain active just not on a team sport. I know this is a lot of info. There are a lot of things working against me. But I do have an abundance of is passion, dedication, and determination. Can someone give an honest opinion on my current situation?
