The thing is that my eye sight got little less during this time and now i am in vain. I have checked my eyes and sadly i have to wear specs. But i have 6/6 with spectacles [no color blindness]. i would be thankful if any one can provide me with information, whether i will have to leave the course or not. or a place where i can find the regulations on this sort of a problem. thank you.
