Bernard,

Thanks for posting the Navy info.  Frankly that is amazing, and makes
me wonder who's making the rules in the U.S. Navy.  PRK and Lasik are
essentially the same procedure except that Lasik involves cutting a
flap of tissue first.  The flap permits faster healing and faster
visual recovery (and less pain).  The amount of tissue lasered is
essentially the same in both procedures.  There is no logic to their
rule that Lasik is disqualifying, but PRK is not.

Michael J. Black, M.D.
