Prior Service trying to get back in the army. I went to MEPS and i was told I have an eye defect(Pupil does not react to light) therefore I am disqualify.I went to my eye and i found out my eye has been this way since the past 3 years. I have no medical issues whatsoever. My question is will I get a waiver for this medical issue ?

Did MEPS offer a waiver or just medically disqualify you?

Then do that and get your medical issue evaluated/corrected.

My eye doctor said I have a 20/20 vision although my left eye does not react to light, and also my eye has been like this for the last 3 years I started seeing him.
