Force Fighter
Do you have to have uncorrected 20/20 vision to be an Air Force Fighter Pilot?
What about a Navy or USMC fighter pilot? What about being an airlift pilot?
Can you wear 20/20 vision contacts or glasses and still be a fighter pilot or ailift pilot?
NO. You do not need absolutely perfect vision. Anyone who tells you that you do doesn't know what they're talking about. I am a US Air Force pilot and I wear glasses.
For the Air Force, you need to have at least 20/30 near vision and 20/70 distant vision, both correctable to 20/20. They do allow contact lenses, but they need to be a specific brand (I think it's Acuvue2, but I'm not sure). If you start out with glasses or a different brand of contacts, they won't let you wear contacts for flying until you are already through pilot training. All pilots go through the same medical screening. Glasses won't keep a person out of fighters.
