I read that eye surgery disqualifies you from any service in the Air Force. I did have eye
surgery when I was 10 years old but it wasn't to improve visual accuity. They told me it was
basically a cosmetic surgery and that it would have nothing to do with improving my vision.
The reason for the surgery is that my left eye was crossed inward. They simply pulled the muscle back. As far as my vision, I'm 20/20 in each eye and 20/15 with both. Oh, another thing, I have a slight near-sightedness in my left eye. Again, the surgery's purpose was soley cosmetic, it had
nothing to do with accuity. So, knowing that my question is, can I become a pilot-qualified
candidate upon entering one of the 3 service academies or the ROTC?
