Is it ok if aftr one or two years during my cadet ship to wear specs??

kits ok if you have spects with less power but if your eye problem is serious then you should really get it corrected but please dont go for a treatment which may cause you a a serious pronlem in future

dear friend
you have not mentioned your eye number
its valid if you have +- .5 beyound that it is not permissible for merchant navy
you canot undergo eye correction as you will be eliminated during physical tests
good luck

hi

at the time of joining you should not have specs.
if u had joined the navy then after few years u can wear the specs.
best of luck

if you are having power less than + or -2.5 then you can go for it.there is no problem but if you are having more than that then you can go for.....
dont worry about the future till that time your eye will be corrected.

my number of specs is 3 so can i join merchant navy

dear,.
merchant navy requires eye sight to be 6/6...without nay error.....
so you might not be eligible for it.....

but you can go for laser surgery and then can apply for merchant navy....

best of luck

If you are undergone for laser surgery, then you have to take precaution.

There is a condition in that case.

If a candidate has laser surgery, then before joining he/she should not suffere from problem, the opretion must be at least 6 months old.Besides these there must not be any problem persist that will hinder way of performing duty.

Best of Luck

hey friend if you are having less power than it can be corrected but it should be less than -2.5...........there are many ways for correcting it like by doing some yoga you can reduce the power or you can go for the laser surgery but i think it is bit complicated,so dont go for it very just keep it as the last option...........

and you can wear the glasses during you training period and till the time you training get over you eye power also get reduced......

Your eye sight must be 6/6 for both the eyes.With specs or without specs.

If your eye sight is lesss then 6/6 then you have to consult the eye specialist for the correction of the eyes.So go accordingly ,All the best.
