can a person get lasik eye surgery and go into the marines?
Q. friend and i are debating about it. we're part of the DEP program for the USMC and he's thinking about getting lasik eye surgery. will he be able to? trust me he has really bad eye sight.
A. I would suggest that you talk with a Marine recruiter,first. The Navy might already have a Lasik program to correct vision. If this is the case, your friend could save a few thousand bucks in the cost for Lasik if the Navy does it free !
The navy takes care of all USMC medical care !

What do you think about lasik eye surgery?
Q. I want to get lasik surgery but I remember about 9 years ago when I was about 18 and I wanted to get the procedure done, someone I worked with told me that it was dangerous. She told me before lasik there was a different type of eye surgery. It produced the same result as the lasik but 20 years later there vision was worse than before and they were practically blind. That scared me. Is this true? Is lasik surgery safe?
A. LASIK eye surgery is a medical procedure that can correct your vision by altering the physical properties of your eye. Unlike traditional surgical procedures that depend upon the skills and steadiness of the surgeon's hand, advanced LASIK eye surgery is computer controlled.
The more progressive LASIK surgery centers perform in-depth analysis of your eyes as an evaluation procedure to determine if you're a good candidate for the LASIK procedure. The evaluation process, which is largely controlled by computer itself, maps the overall physical makeup of each eye. A traditional eye exam determines your visual abilities and then an exhaustive computer analysis determines if your eyes can be enhanced by the LASIK procedure.
In addition to determining whether or not you're a good candidate for LASIK, the procedure also records quite a bit of data that's specific to your eyes. If you choose to proceed with the LASIK surgery, this data is used to program the computer controlled LASIK equipment to insure that your eyes are modified exactly in the proper manner so as to provide maximum benefit.
LASIK eye surgery does carry some risks, such as loss of vision. In some extremely rare cases, the patient may lose vision due to equipment malfunction, scarring or healing related complications.
One common risk of LASIK eye surgery is that any dry eye condition that is experienced right after surgery may hamper the healing process. Signs of dryness are burning, redness and decreased vision. If this dry eye condition persists, you may have to medicate to improve tear duct function and use artificial tears to maintain the proper level of moisture. You must keep your eyes moist after LASIK surgery in order to promote healing.
LASIK eye surgery is relatively safe and it can free you from glasses and contacts. Before you commit to LASIK surgery, make sure that you consider all the advantages and disadvantages of having the procedure. Ask the doctor lots of questions so that you can make an informed decision about whether LASIK eye surgery is the right choice for you.

A. Yes you can 2 surgeries on your life. TLC vision centers offers a lifetime guarantee. Tissue does not grow back in the eye but if you have enough left they can do the surgery again. They would reexamine your eyes to determine if enough is left. A pharmacist I worked with had her surgery redone when she was in her late 30s because her eyes had regressed some.
Is there a way to improve your eye sight naturally and quickly?
Q. Is there any natural herbs or vitamins or effective exercises or a program? I am nearsighted and i am so tired of wearing glasses because it only makes my eye sight worst. Thanks :) Please don't say Lasik surgery.
A. If there was a natural and quick way, millions wouldn't be wearing glasses / contacts...
Those are your choices, along with lasik.
