Air Force Allows Pilots With Lasik to Fly

Vision Impairment Study
If you think you might need glasses, but don’t, you’re not alone.
According to new research in the Journal of the American Medical Association, there are millions of Americans with vision impairment.

“I wear glasses but only when I am in class to see the board.” Natalie admits what happens when she doesn’t wear her glasses: “It is all blurry.”
Hopefully all Natalie is nearsighted--meaning, she can’t see far away. (Read more about Vision Impairment Study)
