Question
i have a question about ur vision in the air force can u still fly if u have glasses and what if u get laser eye sergury
Hi Aaron,
I believe you can fly in the Air Force if you have current vision of 20/70 or better, correctable (with glasses) to 20/20. The Air Force is leery of laser eye surgery (LASIK) unlike the Navy and Army, so I would recommend talking to an Air Force recruiter if you're really interested. For more info, go to:

Thanks for the question and good luck to you!
Sincerely,
