Re: Is laser surgery valid for merchant navy?

dear friend,

it has been clear mention on the eligibility criteria that the color blindness is not

applicable for the merchant navy.

however in case of the other eye sight problem.if you have removed it by operation or

any other means then you will be applicable.

so no needs to worry.

Re: Is laser surgery valid for merchant navy?

you can appear for this exam after laser surgery if only if you have operated your eyes at least 6 month before of examination.
your age limit must have not over 20 years.
you can not wear spectacles ,After the surgery you must have 6/6 vision, otherwise you wont be eligible.

hello friend,

yes,you can join merchant navy after undergoing laser surgery.
you can join as deck cadet after surgery, though marine engineers can wear spectacles for eyesight up to plus/ minus 2.5.

But colour blind candidates are not allowed,so take a pre-checkup for that.

so here you need to put efoorts to get job
because there is a lot of confidence is in society
so make a practice to get job
good luck

Re: Is laser surgery valid for merchant navy?

dear friend,
it is not so important. but one thing have to keep in your mind the candidate should not be color blindness.if you are suffering form any other eye disease it may remove by operation but before 6 months.
or you may use spectacle in +/- 2.5 .
best of luck

if your age is less than 20 yrs. donot go for laser surgery just for lust of money
as eye power can increase again upto alarming levels which can spoil your future completely....
take care
