It means for example if a Candidate has 55% of visual disability, but the disability can be reduced to 40% with the help of advanced visual aids like telescopes and magnifiers, such Candidate will be eligible for PWD reservation. This is important because any visual disability with more than 40% is not eligible for PWD reservation. Having said that, Candidates who have more than 40% disability, though not eligible for PWD reservation, cannot be denied admission to MBBS, if they get a seat based on their merit.

Ms.Priyanka my power w/o glass is 2/60 which is 80% disability after the best correction 6/24 it is 40% the doctor will certify only 40% he will never mention anywhere about 80%. This is usual way of certification, appendix 9 gazette also mentioned it in just below the head of CERTIFICATE OF DISABILITY. Then how a person can go for second correction? The gazette says using a telescope, is there any telescope available in the market to wear continuous? Or by using the telescope the doctor will test again and giving me the second certificate with 20% disability?
Kindly guide me regarding the issue.
Thanks.
