Hello. Recently been down to Gatwick and failed my class 1 due to eyesight. Everything else was perfect, but my left eye let me down. I always had a lazy eye as a child and had the usual patch and other things when I was a child. I went for an eye test at my local eye shop and they confirmed I was very much on the borderline and would have to see what they CAA Say. Obviously as I'm sure you can imagine, I was VERY disappointed with the result. Can anything be done? The CAA doctor said nothing, but there is such things as lazy eye training, eye surgery? Anybody got any experience? How can I dispute what the CAA?


Thanks.

SPH CYLINDER AIX


L +0.50 -1.00 175
R +3.00 -1.75 25


This is my current prescription, I have just spoken to the AME who has conducted the test. He Said my left eye reached 6/12 with glasses and 6/18 without glasses. My right was above standard. He said I was just over a line of the chart.

he said both my eyes were very stable, would things such as correction vision, or amblyopia treatment increase my chances
