LASIK eye surgery before Military?!


Question: LASIK eye surgery before Military?
I am going to get Lasik Eye surgery in a couple weeks, and I am joining the military at the end of January. My recruiter told me that if I got the surgery before going to basic training that I would not be able to Join for another 3 months or so. Is this true? Is there anyway around it? I know the military does it for you, but honestly I will not be able to take myself seriously in basic training with those big goofy glasses. Help?

You should NOT get the LASIK now / your recruiter knows the rules. You will be so busy the first many weeks of basic training that the eyeglasses will be the least of your worries. AND the government will pay for your LASIK, so why incur the expenses now? If you want to get better ready for the military come February, then jog/run every other day 3 days a week; plus do push-up and crunch-exercises, too.
