Corrected with glass 6/6.

I would suggest you to go through the NDA advertisement carefully and then

consult with your doctor about your eligibility.

NDA exam is conducted twice in a year by the UPSC.
If you are interested in Air force and Navy then you are not eligible to apply for that if you have spectales.

For these two force Indian Navy and Indian Airforce candidate eye should be 6/6.

In Indian Army you can apply with spectales. They will consider spectacles to some extent.

I have attached a file below in which you will get the complete details regarding NDA exam.
You can download this from the below link.

yes you are allowed to write the written exam but after you qualify the written exam you will be called for SSB where along with your physical standards your medical standards will also be checked and according to the SSB standards a candidate should have 6/6 with glass and 6/9 without glass

Hi dear,
Spectacles is not allowed in Air Force but to some extent it is allowed in Naval Academy.

In Naval academy the standard is

Uncorrected without glass 6/9
Corrected with glass 6/6.


So Go to www.upsc.gov.inFor more Information about Medical Fitness.
