Why don't the army let you become an oficer if you have had laser eye surgery?

I have always wanted to serve as an officer in the Irish army. My eyesight is poor, well below the necessary requirements. I had never really considered this a major problem, since I could always have laser eye surgery. Recently however, I discovered that the catetships are closed to people who have had laser eye surgery done.
Any ideas why?
And might it be lifted in the next 10 yearsor so?

    The US Air Force used to exclude people from pilot training if they had laser eye surgery. A couple of years ago, they changed and now accept them. There may be some hope for the Irish army.
