minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•2 months agoI’m not aware of your laws, but isn’t it just self-certification? Like you tell them “I use glasses to have normal vision” and they reply “okay cool” and write corrective lenses on your license?
minus-square@over_cloxOPlink-3•2 months agoUm, the Department of Motor Vehicles does a crude eye exam too ya know… They gotta make sure drivers can read the road signs, which I cannot without corrective glasses or contacts.
minus-squareZootlinkfedilink4•2 months agoAn your current glasses are so insanely scratched that you can’t pass said test?
minus-square@over_cloxOPlink-4•edit-22 months agoSome people look me in the face and express concern that I might not see well through the scratches. And they’re not wrong.

All I need is new lenses that aren’t scratched to hell and back. And all I asked was how to actually read the chicken scratch on the prescription…
