What is the policy for a poolee receiving Lasik surgery while in the DEP. My recruiter told me he has no idea and i have repeatedly asked him if he could get me information. He says he has been making phone calls but he hasn't really come up with much. He did say though that it would fall under the category of surgeries and could possibly prevent me from shipping off for another 6 months afterwards. He said he is not sure if they would hold me or just ship me with my corrected vision. Please assume my eyes have made a full recovery when answering.

They won't let you ship till 6 months from the date of surgery.
