Sorry that you are not eligible for IPS with Defective Eyes. Those who are interested to appear in Civil Service. must Physically and Medically fit for the examination. As per the physical standards you are ineligible for IPS entrance exam.

Eligibility Criteria:

• Students needs to be a Graduate in any stream from a recognized university.
• Students age limit should be 21 years to 30 years for general candidates, 21-33 years for OBC and 21-35 years for SC/ST candidates
• Students belong to the general category have a maximum of 4 attempts, 7 for OBC and no limit on attempts for SC/ST candidates..
• Students needs to be physically fit and clear the medical examination

No, I am sorry to say that you cannot opt for IPS examination as your vision is not even close to what they ask for in candidates before even applying for the written examination. Even your height is quite below level that is required,

Therefore, it is quite not possible for you become and IPS officer.

The police services are divided into Technical services and Non-Technical services. Technical services include IRTS, IPS, DANI PS, CISF and RPF whereas Non-Technical services include IAS, IFS and other central services.

For Technical services, the candidate should need a good eye and correction is allowed only by spectacle or glasses.

For Non-Technical services, the candidate should not need a good eye and correction is applicable by Lasik surgery or Radial Keratotamy.

The candidate can have upto +4.00 D including cylinder for non-pathological myopia.

The candidate should have 6/6 or 6/9 distant vision for good eye and 6/9 or 9/12 for the worst eye.

Candidate must have high standard for Colour blind test and should not have inherent blindness.

You must have to fulfill below given eye sight criteria to appear in the IPS exam >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

::::: Eye sight – 6/6 or 6/9 distant vision for good eye.

::::: 6/12 or 6/9 for worst eye. Near vision J 1 for good eye. J2 for worst eye.

Your eye vision with specs must follow the above criteria.

Your height is perfect for the IPS eligibility.

My left eye is -1.25 and right eye is -1.00 am I fit for IPS officer please sir reply

You must fulfill the following criteria to become an IPS officer:

Vision:

->6/12 or 6/9 for worst eye

My right eye is -1.25 and left eye is -0.5.
