Hello aspirant,

Usually, 3 percent reservation is given for PWD candidates for Group A, B, C, D direct recruitment jobs. In this one percent is reserved for people with disabilities such as

  • blindness or low vision
  • Locomotor disability
  • Hearing impairment

In case of low vision, a person is visually impaired even after treatment and is capable of using additional vision aid for the execution of work.

One can apply for government jobs only if a person has not less than 40 percent of relevant disability. Meaning anyone above 40% disability is liable to apply for reservation under PWD.

To avail of this reservation, you have to submit a Disability Certificate. A Medical Board will issue this certificate after a thorough examination of the candidate.

Talking about your case, i f you have a minor vision problem, it shouldn't be a problem. You can apply for government jobs. In case the visual impairment exceeds 40% you are liable to apply under PWD with an authentic Disability Certificate.

I hope this helps!

For any further questions, please revert!

Thank you!
