Diplopia

[dvlax40]

Was looking through the forum and only found passing mention to it.

was wondering what exactly was waiver-able about it, if anything at all?

im going in for a eye test before i start my journey, in the past i have been border line for depth perception issue but i also have slight myopia that may have contributed to it.

im going in for a retest to make sure even with the correction there is no issues with depth perception/diplopia .

if i do have confirmed diplopia, am i pretty much screwed when it comes to flying?

Just an update, passed the red lens test, and did well overal on my yearly eye exam, did poorly on the depth test (circle randot). my doctor thinks its more likely due to me eyes not being trained as well to see it due to looking at a computer all day. he taught me some exercises and gave me some stereograms to practice and i feel confident now but would still like to know more about the regulation
