I wish you luck, it sucks that you can't ride, but I sincerely hope you will g et better so you can enjoy motorcycling. Good luck and best wishes.

Meanwhile before going back to your eye doc...I'm assuming he is an opthalmolagist, I would consult another specialist who could give you some info regarding the placement of a prism in the precription for new glasses. This could be a solution to the periphery problem.

I made an appoitment with a specialist, and I just realized that I know where I can ride a dirt bike. After I get flight school out of the way, Im probably gonna get a dirt bike, I live behind a large plot of land that my family owns its all dirt and hills. Why dint I thing of this before?

That's a good idea, get a dirt bike. I remember during a MSF there was this lady whose DREAM it was to ride a motorcycle. She was so uncoordinated, dropped the bike, yet still barely passed by one point. The instructor insisted she stay off the streets and get a dirt bike.

You'll still have fun. At least you won't have to constantly be on the lookout for cagers, well at least maybe the drunk ones that find themselves in your field.

Wait a second.... flight school? Am I misunderstanding you? Your peripheral vision is good enough for a class 3 (or better) airman medical certification? Peripheral vision check is a standard part of all FAA medicals... or are you going for a special issuance? Or is your peripheral vision good enough for the FAA?

If it's good enough for the FAA, ride on... if it isn't, I'm confused....
