What is required to obtain a learner’s license in terms of vision?

To obtain a learner’s license, individuals must successfully pass a vision test. This requirement ensures that new drivers have adequate visual acuity to safely operate a vehicle. The vision test assesses various aspects of eyesight, including the ability to see clearly at different distances and the ability to focus on objects, which are crucial for detecting hazards on the road and reading road signs.

While having 20/20 vision is often considered optimal, it is not a strict requirement to obtain a learner’s license. Additionally, the need for corrective lenses or a doctor’s note is not a blanket requirement for every applicant; rather, if a person does not pass the vision test, they may then need corrective lenses to drive legally or might need a doctor’s input concerning their vision health. Therefore, passing the vision test serves as the primary requirement that confirms an individual's ability to see sufficiently for safe driving.
