Will I be able to become a fighter pilot if I have myopic vision?


Sir/ Maam,
I am a 2nd year BSc Economics (Hons) student under the Calcutta University. I want to join the IAF flying branch. My problem is that I have myopic vision. Will I be able to be a "fighter pilot" if I opt for LASIK surgery and correct my vision?

Dear aspirant,

-Sorry friend if you have want to become fighter pilot then you should have done your graduation with physics or maths or engineering.

-B.Sc Economics graduate are not eligible to become fighter pilot.

-To become a fighter pilot one should be from physics or maths field.

-One can join air force as pilot through CDS and AFCAT exam.

-The eyesight rules are also very strict in air force so if you have any problem in eyes then your chances of getting selected are very less.

-So don’t get disheartened you can apply for any other government job.

BEST OF LUCK....
