Hi,

I studied Master of Computer Science in Nova Scotia, Canada, and have been working for more than 1 year after my graduation as a software developer. I am planning to apply to PR over Express Entry. To do it, I collected all the required documents. I would like to ask one question about my medical exam.

My right eye is extremely weak, it has cataract and laziness from birth. I got a surgery when I was 3 years old and there is a lens inside my right eye, which helps me to see just a little bit. There is no further cure as far as I know. I could not read the letters during my examination and my doctor said it might be a problem for my PR application. Am I not eligible to be a permanent resident if one of my eyes is very weak? What should I do?

Thanks
