glasses or PRK?

I want am thinking about getting PRK done so I do not have to wear glasses when I try out for SF. My eyesight is not bad at all. I can see, its just that things are not sharp looking. My eye prescription is -2.00 in both eyes. I just don't want to wear my glasses and rely on them as much. What do you think? Is there a standard for eyesight when trying out for SF?

I think TR has stickies on this somewhere too. Search it.

Best wishes,

This has been flogged to death here, and as noted, there are stickies about vision and medical requirements.

The Search button is your friend.
