Well i'm not 100% sure, but:

Initial:

and then the 'Revalidation and Renewal of JAR Medical Certificates' page on the CAA website shows:
http://www.caa.co.uk/default.aspx?ca...=90&pageid=531

JAR Class 1

The initial refractive error (correction) limit is +5/-6 dioptres. There is no myopic limit for revalidation/renewal. The astigmatism (distortion) and anisometropia (difference between the eyes) initial limits are 2 dioptres, but there are no limits for revalidation/renewal.
NOTE: contact lenses must be worn if the anisometropia exceeds 3 dioptres.

So....
