Hello all,

I don't have a 6/6 vision. I have a myopia but it's minimal (0.5 & 0.75) hence I never bothered to wear glasses. The ones I had, I lost.

Now, will not having corrective glasses affect my medical report. Should I but a pair of glasses before my medical exam?

Thank you!

In the report they assess your vision. Non corrected (for those who don't wear glasses/lenses) or corrected (for those who do) - if I understand that part correctly.
So if I were you I would go there with the glasses on. It won't affect their decision in any way.

The criteria is: will it burden Canadian Healthcare System? No...therefore you will be alright not wearing glasses.....
Also, My eyesight wasn't tested at my medical.

If it still bothers you, take a pair with u.
