Class 1 - eyesight question

I'm considering starting my ATPL ground exams next year and will attempt to get a class 1 medical before in order to determine if it is worthwhile investing in the ground exams and training.

My eyesight is just outside the class 1 requirements but my optician, who works at Moorfields in London, insists he knows plenty of commercial pilots with worse eyesight than me.

Can anyone offer any advice on this?
