Can a person with corrected vision become a commercial pilot? Is there any limit on the power of lenses? US military doesn't allow corrected vision but what about commercial pilot?

A pilot steers his aircraft like God steers the universe. Can God still see if his vision is less than 20/20? Is that even possible?
Is our external vision intertwined with our internal one? Is fixing a pilot's myopia a cure for his internal vision? Should he be fully trusted with corrected vision?
A dog got up early and ate a cat's milk. Was this intentional? Did the car suffer from vision loss like the pilot?

No Shit!

First of all you need to be clear about "corrected vision". Is it correction by means of glasses, PRK, LASIK or other methods?

Even the military allows pilots with glasses to a certain extent. Whats the worst correction the military will take? Well, honestly I do not know the answer. You will have to ask a military recruiter or somebody at Fork Rucker, Alabama.

Let me point out that to become a pilot with the military is very competitive. Average joe cannnot hack it. Also the age restrictions are there too. For Air Force, it is 28. Army accepts older folks but I believe Navy and Marines standards regarding age is pretty much similar to the Air Force.
One pre requisite to becoming a pilot is being citizen of the US. So, one has to have become a citizen prior to applying.

In short, you will have no problem in training and gaining employment in the US with corrected vision through any means but there are many countries around the world that will not accept LASIK, PRK for pilots. Glasses are accepted worldwide for commercial pilots.

Ask away if you have any other questions

@Kaji Sahab, thank you for your comments. Is there any limits for the power of glasses for the commercial pilots? For example, if a person has myopic eye and he wears a glass with a prescription of -6.50 for his lenses, will he still qualify for becoming pilot? Also, is there any age restrictions? Thank you once again.

For US (FAA), Here are the reqs:

@ Kaji Sahab.... Thank you for your response. I am seeking information because one of my friends from Nepal is coming to US as a permanent resident (got dv) and he wants to study Aviation after he comes here. He was asking all these question to me and I have no idea about aviation. He is 30 years I guess. I should probably tell him better choose something else. I saw your videos as well. Becoming a pilot seems horrible!

@kiddo...Thank you for your link.

He is better off not becoming a pilot in the US if he intends to live in the US as a pilot. However, if he wants to get his training here, work for a few years and get experience and settle down in Nepal then its not a bad choice. However, pilots (captains) make about 5 Lakh per month with domestic airlines and co-pilots start around 60k per month in Nepal.

there will be a lot of things to take care of after he lands here so its going to be pretty difficult to spend 50k plus on training and then poverty wages after that. So my suggestion would be not to be a pilot.
