Hello,

Yes, a student with weak eyesight and using corrective lenses can qualify for the DGCA medical exam, but with conditions:

  1. Class 1 Medical (Commercial Pilot License - CPL) :

    • Distance vision must be 6/6 in each eye with or without correction.
    • Near vision should be N5 .
    • Refractive errors are allowed within limits.
    • Lasik surgery is permitted with specific conditions.
  2. Class 2 Medical (Private Pilot License - PPL) :

    • Similar vision requirements as Class 1.
  3. Color Vision :

    • Must pass the Ishihara test.

Aviation doctors (DGCA-approved) conduct final assessments.

Hope it helps !
