Can People with Monocular Vision Impairment Obtain a Driver's License?

[LaLayla]

The other eye's vision reaches 5.0 or above, then a driver's license can be obtained. According to the revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": For individuals with monocular vision impairment, if the better eye (the eye with better vision) has a naked or corrected visual acuity of 5.0 or above on the logarithmic visual acuity chart, and the horizontal visual field reaches 150 degrees, they can apply to take the driver's license test. Below are the detailed explanations: 1. Cannot be corrected with glasses: If the vision is very poor, such as below 0.3, and cannot be corrected to the normal vision range by wearing glasses, such a condition does not pass the motor vehicle physical examination. 2. Can maintain normal vision with glasses: If the vision impairment is due to refractive errors, normal vision can be maintained by wearing glasses, and such a condition does not affect obtaining a driver's license. 3. Vision treatment is still needed: If there is a decrease in vision, more detailed examinations at the hospital are required to determine the specific cause before knowing whether it can be treated. If treatment is possible, active treatment is encouraged, which does not affect participation in the driver's license test.
