Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dark Horse" data-source="post: 1253097" data-attributes="member: 52527"><p>A visual acuity of 6/12 means that someone can see at 6 metres what a "normal" person can see at 12 metres. Normal vision is therefore 6/6 (or in the USA, where they use feet rather than metres, it would be 20/20).  Visual acuities can be recorded "with correction" (i.e. with glasses or contact lenses) or "without correction" (i.e. with the naked eye). What [USER=14029]@CarbsRok[/USER] was saying was that for driving a car, the visual acuity should be at least 6/12 with correction.</p></blockquote><p></p>
