No worries. You need to wear your glasses when you fly. :)
VDL 'SHALL WEAR CORRECTIVE LENSES'
EXPLANATION :
In order to comply with the vision requirements of your licence, you are required to wear those spectacles or contact lenses that correct for defective distant vision as examined and approved by an Authorised Medical Examiner whilst exercising the privileges of your licence. You must also carry with you a similar set of spectacles. Should you wear contact lenses, you must carry a spare set spectacles as approved by an AME. You may not wear contact lenses whilst exercising the privileges of your licence until cleared to do so by an AME.
