CAAC eye requirements

[islandguy]

Could anyone provide me with info regarding the CAAC eye sight exam and requirements?

I have 20/20 in one eye, but can only achieve 20/30 in my other eye. Combined vision is still 20/20 with glasses. In my home country, this is sufficient for a medical certificate. Not sure if this would disqualify me from flying in China?

How intense is the exam, what kind of test methods do they use?

Thank you kindly for your advice.

You have to be able to read the FAA tables at the usual distance. If I remember correctly that's all.

.

same as FAA standard: correctable to 20/20 on both eyes (separately tested). All the eye exams that were given to me here were of the open C test (the C rotates to 8 different orientations and you'd be asked the opening direction). Not particularly hard IMO. hope that helps.
