Glasses When Flying

[A4sForever]

for reference, does anyone know if an instructor can or will fail you during a check ride in primary if you are prescribed glasses from nami and dont wear them during flights, or do they have no way of knowing either way...

Strange .... I keep having bad dreams about this .... and having a checkride with no clothes on .... stuff like that.

I've never heard of anyone asking or caring about that. The onus is on you. That said, why would you handicap yourself by not having the best possible visual acuity?

Couldn't have said it better myself. On another note; If a pilot is involved in a mishap and is prescribed glasses what do you think will ineveitably be asked by the investigators? I would not put my career on the line by not wearing glasses because I think I look like a dork.
