If the corrected vision of both eyes meets the requirements, a driver's license can be obtained. Below is a collective introduction to obtaining a driver's license with monocular vision: 1. Vision requirements for obtaining a driver's license: For applying for large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, trolleybuses, or tramcars, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach 5.0 or above on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. For other types of vehicles, the naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach 4.9 or above on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. 2. C1 driver's license: The C1 driver's license is a type of driver's license code. It allows driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, and light, small, and micro special operation vehicles. The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, road driving, and safe and civilized driving common sense.
Now people with monocular vision impairment can also apply for a driver's license. As long as the naked vision of the better eye reaches 5.0 or above and the horizontal visual field is no less than 150 degrees, they can apply for a Class C license. My friend who lost sight in his left eye underwent professional visual field tests and successfully obtained his license. When driving, it's important to frequently use rearview mirrors to check blind spots, always turn your head to confirm before changing lanes, and pay extra attention to the right-side distance when parking. It's recommended that beginners practice spatial awareness in open areas first. In fact, the human body has strong compensatory functions - once accustomed to monocular driving, one can drive just as steadily.
