Hi HGT,

"My Right Eye reaches the standards of 6/12, My Left eye 6/6, and together 6/4."

This is with glasses ?
And 6/4 - are you sure?

ICAO requires at least 6/9 each eye (with glasses) and 6/6 or better binocular ((both eyes)with glasses).
Best to ask your eye surgeon if you can achieve that and will you able to maintain that kind of distance vision for the next 20-30 years of your flying career?

If you can't achieve that it's better to look for another career rather than spend a lot money to get trained then become unfit later.

Dreams aside - unless you have money to burn.
