RE: R/C pilots please don't do Lasik!
I've been wearing glasses since I was 5, so that's nearly 35 years with them. They're part of me now, and have saved my eyes from FOD more than a dozen times.
We consulted about Radial Keratotomy (sp) when I was about 12, since my vision is 20/400. Our optometrist told me flat out - "You don't mess with the eye" ... good enough for me
