For the first part of your question, I believe the military will provide braces. Now if there is a choice as to the type you get I don’t know that.

Can being prescribed a steroidal inhaler for a sinus infection be a disqualifier for the Military?

Question : Can being prescribed a steroidal inhaler for a sinus infection be a disqualifier for the Military?
I had a really bad sinus infection and was prescribed a steroidal inhaler. Can being prescribed an inhaler be an automatic DQ? I dont think so, but I just want to put some worries to rest. I’ve been really touchy about my medical history due to pediatric asthma from the age of five to eight (well before the cut off age of 12) I’m kind of a neurotic, but I just want to be sure.

Answer by LTC
The training to be a doctor in the Army is the same as becoming a doctor anywhere else. 4 years of college then 4 years of medical school. The Army will usually set you up for residency.

Look at this sight for the medical technician fields:

Does laser eye surgery disqualify you from being a military pilot?

2

Question : Does laser eye surgery disqualify you from being a military pilot?
I have done some reading about some pilot programs in a few of the military branches. I came across something interesting that stated: If you have had laser eye surgery in the past, you are disqualified from becoming a pilot. Is this true?

My next question is, if it is in fact true, why would that disqualify you? Laser eye surgery can correct your vision back to 20/20 and that’s what pilots are suppose to have correct? So wheres the logic in that?
laser eye

Best answer:

Answer by Miss J
I heard similar to the same thing, that in order to be a pilot you needed to have 20/20 vision, and not laser eye surgery. Yet i also heard form someone in the military that you can as long as you have lasik, and keep having it as it begins to decrease and get worse. I’m not sure though, someone answer this question! lol
