Hi

Does anyone know, in the medical test do they require vision of 20/20? If not, what is enough to pass it?
Thanks in advance.

I exactly dont know about it as I have not gone through this. But what small knowledge do I have I know that eye test does not matter to them if there is serious disease which is transferable or a burden to their health system. As far as eyes are concerned 20/20 with the glasses is also good.

My medical didn't even have an eye test. I imagine if I was outright blind there would have been an issue, but I can't see them caring as long as you have a functional level of vision.

Apparently every clinic does it differently, mine didn't let people use prescription glasses.

if you wear eyeglasses you have to bring it with you. They are more looking at serious eye defect like cataract, color blindness, etc
