Dear Friend

Yes, You cannot become pilot. Since u have Spectacles.

But you can become an areonotical engg. who can built a airoplane. If you are interested in aerospace only you can join the engg and then u shall find many ways to work in the field.

Best of luck

dear friend

Yes you become a pilot, If your vision is 20/20 with corrective lenses. Many commercial pilots wear glasses. So, As long as your distance vision is correctable to 20/20 and your near vision is correctable to 20/40 with your glasses on, you can become a commercial pilot.............


ok
all the best.

you do not need perfect eyesight to become a Commercial Pilot. As long as your eyesight can be corrected to near normal then you can hold the Commercial Pilot licence.however
you know what a pilot job is and why it asks for a perfect eyesight..try to get your eyesight corrected if that is possible for you,then you are on for pilot or else try in some other prospering field..

hi im chandini......... im wearing contact lenses to correct myopia n my power is -6.00 n my age is 16 . im gonna under go a laser treatment to correct my disorder as wanted 2 b a pilot ..... wat could i do

why not?
you can fill the forms of various exams like these of aviation sector as your vision should be 6/6.
at your power,it will not make disturbances.

dear ,

best of luck

i have eyesight problem(0.25) distance. can i become a commercial pilot

Dear,
According to me -
Yes you become a pilot, If your vision is 20/20 with corrective lenses. Many commercial pilots wear glasses. So, As long as your distance vision is correctable to 20/20 and your near vision is correctable to 20/40 with your glasses on, you can become a commercial pilot.
Thanks,
All the best.

I am pilot and i have myopia (-1.50). Its no problem

yes you can definitely get a CPL if your vision is correctable to 20/20 by using contact lenses or spectacles, but but but i have checked on the criteria which different airliners(airindia and the rest) set for their pilots:
1 it should be perfect 20/20 without any corrective lenses
2 they should be graduates
just live being graduate is not mandatory for getting a CPL but airlines ask for it, similarly you can have get a CPL with glasses but finding a job will be difficult.

Dear friend,

sorry friend till i know that as you have -1.5 power and you wear spectacles.So it will create problem when you attend the interview in air-force examination.
Your long distance must be 20/40.

good luck.
