Guys for CAT1, any one here who has eye acuity in each eye 20/25 and holds CAT1 ?

Post by moemoe1989fa »

hello :D
Guys my vision acuity in each eye is 20/25. Both eyes acuity is 20/25. Looked at transport Canada website they did not mention about both eyes. My vision not correctable to 20/20 for some reason. Is my vision considered as fit for Cat1 ? Any one here who got same eye acuity and holds CAT1 ? Any one here holds CAT1 with same acuity ? Thx

Don’t let photofly drag you down. He didn’t even answer your question, all he did was spit out the “normal” regs.

20/25 should be find for both eyes, but talk to a TC CAME first and start the process. They have made exemptions in the past for vision that is close to limits. They might just want a detailed ophthalmologist report.

I would do this tomorrow, because they are taking up to 12 months to process CAT 1 medicals.
