Hello Snehal,

Your eligibility for State Police, CRPF, BSF, and CAPF depends on their medical standards for vision . Since you had cataract surgery and have a multifocal lens , let's analyze:

1. CRPF/BSF/CAPF Vision Standards

  • Minimum unaided vision required: 6/6 or 6/9 in the better eye and 6/9 or 6/12 in the worse eye.

  • Corrected vision (with glasses/lens) : Allowed up to 6/6 in both eyes .

  • Cataract surgery/history of eye disease : Usually a disqualification , but some cases may be considered fit after proper medical examination .

  • Multifocal lens implants : May lead to medical rejection as it affects depth perception and night vision.

    2. State Police Vision Standards

  • Varies by state, but most require unaided vision of at least 6/9 or 6/12 in each eye .

  • Lens implantation may lead to rejection in some states, but some allow it if vision is normal.

    Final Verdict

  • If your right eye is 6/6 without issues , you might be eligible.

  • Since you have a multifocal lens in the left eye , your acceptance depends on the specific medical board decision .

  • You should check the official medical guidelines of the respective force and consult a medical officer before applying.
