They can't be able to fly in battle, because they don't know how many g-forces the corrected eye can withstand?????

And USMC?

Nope,
As of may 2007, the Air Force allows both PRK and Lasik eye surgery for flight school candiates.
They completed the test on G forces affecting vision.
I have heard, but can not say for sure, that the navy has folowed suit.

I think that the US Air Force recently changed it policy to allow one kind of corrective laser surgery for fighter pilots.

my neighbor had corrective surgery. she was flying to work the other morning and forgot her eye glasses and the stupid jerk flew right into the pine tree out front......I dont think she could fly in battle though. she couldnt fist fight with the elementary school kids without getting her asss kicked let alone flapping her arms and trying to throw punches at the same time. they should have just left flying to the birds.
