Your situation needs a laser procedure called PRK, not LASIK. You will first need a corneal thickness evaluation test (called pachymetry) and surface study (called topography). PRK procedure takes only about 5 minutes to complete, but it is advisable to go for your medical exam after about 3 months. You can get your desired job subsequently.
