Can i still become a plastic surgeon if i undergo lasik eye surgery?Alvaro
I am in doubt because the FDA says that some jobs prohibit certain refractive procedures.My prescription is -1 on the left and -.75 on the right.

Yep. Heck, you can even have a hair weave and a poor fashion sense. Look at Dr. 90210's Dr. Ray.

I'm surprised you can get Lasik with eyesight that good. I have -4 and -4.5. Are you not wanting contact lenses? You could always go with the implants, which are like contacts, only surgically implanted and the surgery is reversible while Lasik is not.Why don't you contact a college of plastic surgery in your area? Either that, or call your local hospital, which should have a list of qualifications and things they can turn you down for if you want to work in that hospital.

you might want to rethink this a little.Plastic surgery, the specialty is 'very' tough. First, go to high school and get top grades, in everything. You can do it if you want to, just have to want to. A nice way is to get a study buddy who competes with you to get the higher grade. That just makes one study really hard. Do that and you'll do well on the SAT. Go to a 'strong' college, major in something besides science (because you are going to be doing science for the rest of your life!) and take the premed stuff along with your major. You only need to get A's in those courses that you take for credit (ALL OF THEM). Have you any idea the number of 4.0 students applying to med school? LOTS of them. Vet school is even worse.Then you go to med school, which is, ...........well, ......time consuming. And you have to do pretty well and pass your boards. Then you do an internship which I'd recommend you make a rotating one so you are exposed to most of medicine. A little pediatrics, . (Once you are all specialized people in the family are still going to call you and ask about this pain or that leak or this infection or the morning after pill or...). 'then you do a surgical residency. That's sort of a busy time for those first few years. Then you do the plastic's fellowship. There are different types of plastic surgery. Think .....fixing burns. Repairing a burned face or chest or leg or? . Reconstructing a limb with the orthopedic doctor, reconstructing a breast out of abdominal tissues, reconstructing a pelvic floor after a motorcycle accident... Or you could do the finer facial plastic stuff and use botox, and collagen injections for a sweeter goodnight kiss...But by the time you get out of med school and the internship, your whole way of thinking will have changed. You won't look at medicine like you do now, not at ALL! plastics may become such a stretch for you because you like cardiac surgery better or orthopedics or helping mothers have a normal, safe delivery...some of those things will come into play once you start working in those fields.The decision is whether or not to go into medicine. The rest of the stuff comes later. And you can have any old refractive error you want, as long as you can see well WITH your glasses.
