Hello Aspirant

The least acceptable level of visual acuity is 6/6 in the best case scenario and 6/18 in the worst. It is necessary to correct the eyesight. If your myopia is greater than -3.5D or your hypermetropia is greater than +3.5D (including astigmatism), you have a lower chance of joining the Air Force.
