A concussion isn't the issue unless you lost consciousness, if you blacked out then it's over, no chance lf making it, if not it shouldn't be an issue. You can always just not share that information with the flight surgeon, unless this information is already in your medical record.

In Dick Couch's Book entitled Down Range that there was a SEAL who graduated from the Air Force Academy, played football there, and wanted to become an Air Force pilot. But he sustained a concussion while playing football there and that they would not let him fly because of it. So he decided to go Navy and became a SEAL.

Not sure if it's a case by case basis but there is always a waiver for everything and you need to scope it all out. As long as you are not colorblind or just blind altogether I'm sure there's a way you can get a medical waiver. Good luck to you!
