Not sure about lasik, but I remember PRK was FREE for me. I'm sure it is.i heard that it's free for all in military. Can someone confirm this?
You explained it perfectly. I left out a lot of details. There was a waiting list and I waited 6 months and yeap, only the big hospitals have the machines to get this done.It is available at some bases, but not all, and they won't send you to another base just to have it done. There's also usually a waiting list and they'll have to be able to spare you at your clinic for the recovery time. My wife had her's done during dental school on the civilian side, her doc recommended at least a week out of the clinic. It will not be done while you are in dental school since you won't have any military medical benefits yet.
