Well at the age of 32 it seems like I’ll need a little boost to get 20/20 distant vision. I’m usually on the line, but due to my AME retiring I just went with a new one after 7 years. He is a great doc, just a little more thorough than the last one.
Any recommendations on types of glasses, or a combo including sunglasses? Would you recommend contacts? I hate the thought of touching anywhere near my eyeball to be honest. I also feel like my vision is decent at 20/25 and therefore wouldn’t have glasses if it wasn’t required, so I plan on only wearing them while operating the plane. It makes sense that once you wear glasses your eyes become lazy and deteriorate more so, but I’m hoping they won’t if I only wear them while flying. I’m guessing lasik is also out of the question as 20/25 isn’t legally blind
