My eyes under a Lasik machine with a tracking device. Notice how the tracking device can not lock on to my left eye due to the Nystagmus (shaking of the eye). Don’t you think Nystagmus should be a disqualifing condition. My Doctor told me, “It would not be a problem”.

LASIK is the acronym for Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis, a type of refractive laser eye surgery performed by ophthalmologists for correcting myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.[1] The procedure is preferred to photorefractive keratectomy, PRK, because it requires less time for the patient’s full recovery, and the patient feels less pain, overall. Many patients choose LASIK as an alternative to wearing corrective eyeglasses or contact lenses.
