Dailies Contact Lenses

Navy says sons eyes w/out contacts are below allowed,with contacts perfect,will they take him w/lasik surgery?

Son passed physical at MEPS,has college degree, score 96.Without his contacts Navy said it was below what was allowed. They tried for a waiver, it was denied. With contacts he has 20/20. Can't get a answer from Navy, if he were to get Lasik correction to 20/20 would he get in.

1. I don't know about the Navy. The Air Force changed their policy a few years ago and now accept people into pilot programs with LASIK
2. For the correct answer, you will have to ask the Navy.
3. to tell the truth, ask the Navy. and don't just call them or e-mail them, go in actual person into the office. but i mean lasik corrects your eye permantely, so i guess yes. i have to tell u this, but there is a kind of contact lens that you wear at night, and take them off during the day (you can still wear if you like). during the day, u have a 20/20 vision. so it kinda corrects ur vision. its a hard contact lesn
