This is the current proposal for LAPL Medicals regarding eyesight:

7. VISUAL SYSTEM
7.1. The applicant’s visual acuity and visual fields are examined.
7.2. Acuity
The applicant’s visual acuity with or without corrective lenses should be 6/9 binocularly and 6/12 in each eye.
7.3. Amblyopia or Monocularity
An applicant with amblyopia or monocularity may be assessed as fit, subject to a satisfactory flight test, if the visual acuity in the unaffected eye is with or without correction 6/6 or better.
7.4. Visual field defects
Applicants shall have a normal binocular visual field or a normal monocular visual field.
7.5. Colour Vision
For the grant of a night rating applicants should have correctly identified 9 of the first 15 plates of the 24plate edition of Ishihara pseudoisochromatic plates. A vision care specialist or a doctor may have conducted this test.
