Hi there! Question: I read you can’t have lenses in glasses with more than +8 diopters to pass a D4 medical. I do have a lense strength of more than 8 diopters, but I don’t have any eye health issues. Does this mean I can’t ever drive any vehicle over 3.5 tonnes or is there any way it is possible I could drive a heavier vehicle? (I’m not looking to drive commercially and I’m not driving anything as big as an HGV)
Thanks

If u fail your medical on eye test does the doctor tell you that there and then before sending forms? Do the doctor then send you to your opticians to get your vision tested and then go back for medical?

Hi Mohammad, thanks for your comment. Yes, the medical assessor carrying out your D4 medical will inform you that your vision does not meet the required standards and advise you to visit your optician as you may require an updated prescription. Hope this helps.

The doctor will leave the eyesight page blank. Your optician can then fill in the page when you go for your eye test so there's no need to go back to your doctor. Incidentally, my experience (I've been through 2 medicals for my HGV licence) is that the doctor will usually mark you down as having good vision in both eyes if they are satisfied that your overall vision is up to scratch. At my last medical, the doctor marked me down as having 6/9 (a good bit above the minimum requirement) in both eyes despite me being sceptical that my vision is as good as that in my weaker eye.
