Dear Raviinder, as you haven't mentioned the power of the glasses, we are enlisting the visual requirements for jobs in Air Force.
Minimum Visual Acuity 6/6 in one eye and 6/9 in other, correctable to 6/6 only for hypermetropia.
Manifest Myopia – Nil. (c) LASIK Surgery for correction of vision is admissible in Transport and Helicopter streams of Short Service Commission (Flying Branch) if the following conditions are fulfilled at the time of Air Force medical examination.
LASIK Surgery should not have been carried out before the age of 20 years.The axial length of the eye should not be more than 25.5 mm as measured by OLmaster.
- At least twelve months should have lapsed post uncomplicate stable LASIK. No history or evidence of any complication.
- The post LASIK corneal thickness as measured by a corneal pachymeter should not be less than 450 microns.
- Individuals with high refractive errors (>6D) prior to LASIK are to be excluded. Candidates must not suffer from colour or night blindness.
- All other medical criteria would be evaluated by the Air Force Medical Authorities whose decision on the fitness would be final
