Medical standards are in place to make sure they don't spend $1M training you to fly an aircraft and you end up physically not being able to fly, therefore making the investment a complete waste.

As for refractive stuff and such, as long as you can see within standards, it'll be easier to get a waiver for something like that rather than if you had cancer or heart disease. Either way, you need to know the person who can/will push the waiver through and get it DONE.

I've found that most of these folks just need a lot of reminders/follow-ups.

So did you already get a slot with them?
