Class 1 Medical

[english49er]

Hi,

I asked the CAA for confirmation on which pilots license i am eligible for, unfortunately, my eyesight is not good enough to gain a Class 1, but the letter which they sent to me said that I still might be eligible to gain a UK-Recognised Class 1 medical, which is still ICAO recognised.

I haven't been able to find any information about this on the net, does anyone know what it is/what the restrictions would be etc?

Thanks very much
