I think the BBBofC class laser eye surgery in 2 categories though, non/intrusive. Intrusive surgery would result in a Pro license not being granted. Glynn Rhodes has some experience here, it was him that brought it to my attention.

If you don't get a BBBofC licence there are other avenues to explore.

I believe it's the oppersite, you can have it done in the pros n not the ams

There is two different types of laser eye surgery, one you can with the other you can't... I had the one done where u can't box with it
