Q. I have like 20/30 vision but i been hearing they change the policy of something any help please. I am a sophomore in high school and Can i do the surgery after high school.
Answer
i think you have to be in there for a couple years or more b4 that. Unless you can get in with bad eyesight. MY reccomendation go to the citadel or some milatary academy. This aint WW1-WW11 where they will draft or accept any1 over 18- under 60. It would be very easy to get in with a college degre of some kind. Even an A.S. They migh 60-7% chance pay for it for you if you say you can't afford if you want to join. Otherwise..if you pay out of pocket to get...then you can join. It all depends..are you paying......do you have a college degree...are you qualified without one.

Where's a safe place to receive LASIK surgery in San Francisco?
inimitable
I live in San Francisco and am thinking of having LASIK eye surgery. I would love if local veterans of the procedure could share their stories with me - successful or not.

I had mine done in Santa Rosa, CA, which is about 60 miles north of SF. The facility is called Laservue, and the doctor in SR also rotates to a center in SF. I had a great experience.
I was about 20/250 before Lasik surgery last year. The procedure was painless, probably due to the Valium they gave me. The ride home (as a passenger, of course) was fairly uncomfortable, mainly due to light sensitivity. The doctor gave me dark goggles, but the light was still too bright. I was in some pain once I got home (maybe 3 hours post procedure), but I had some left over Vicodin, and took two doses of that. The Vicodin took the edge off. Slept fine that night. Woke up the next morning, and I COULD SEE FINE! Hallelujah! I was jazzed up about that. I drove myself to my one day check up (an 2 hour round trip) with no problems. For that check up, I was seeing at 20/25, less than 24 hours after the surgery. I went to work that afternoon (doing ultrasound which really requires you to use your eyes). For my one week check up, I was seeing between 20/20 and 20/15. Other than the touch of pain I had post procedure, before I went to bed for the night, I had no other problems. I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Just one other thing....I went to a doctor who used computerized, lazer equipment. No knives were involved. But, it cost me a pretty penny. I paid $5500 for both eyes, but I was not comfortable going to a doctor that advertized in the newpaper for $500 per eye. Sometimes you get what you pay for! Good luck to you!
