Hello,
I have been searching this site for a little while and have found a lot of answers but I was wondering if anyone has had any experience or advice on this? I did my medical back in January 2009 and I was denied because of medical reasons. My left eye is lazy and so my right eye does all the work. My right eye has better then 20/20 vision but my left eye is a little bit better then 6/60 but I have perfect peripheral vision and it has never affected me performing in sports or anything else. I had to get a formed filled out by the eye doctor and give it to the RC. A few weeks later I recieved a letter saying I was denied because of the corrective lenses that are needed. I went to the RC and explained that I haven't been perscribed corrective lenses and have never needed them because the left eye is lazy. So I sent away more forms and then got another letter in the mail saying I was denied for medical reasons because of "medications" I need to take and the CF can't accommodate them. I have never been or ever had to take medications for my eye or anything else.
So I am just wondering if anyone has experienced the same problem and has some advice and if there is anything I can still do to get in? Joining the Canadian Forces has been my dream! I aced everything in the testing including the physical, I just have this one problem.
