For people with poor eyesight, much is inaccessible, be it some professions or interesting hobbies. We will tell you what people who have poor eyesight lose and what can be done about it.

1. Pilot

Many people dream of flying, but the medical examination that the cadets-pilots undergo is the strictest. It is clear that only the healthiest pilots are trusted to sit at the helm of a military aircraft or fly a liner with several hundred passengers on board.

But in commercial aviation or among amateur pilots, the requirements are much less stringent: even small violations of refraction are allowed (this is the medical name for myopia, farsightedness or astigmatism, familiar to everyone). Another thing is that sitting at the helm of your own plane with glasses or lenses is not an idea. Glasses can interfere with the view, or even fall off, and lenses have an unpleasant property: at the most inopportune moment they shift, and then you have to drop everything, trying to return the lens to its proper place.

In general, aviation (even amateur) and poor vision are incompatible. But if you add sharpness to your vision using modern methods, the sky is open: you can fly your own plane or become, for example, a navigator or flight attendant.

2. Racer

It doesn't matter what kind of race you are going to do: any activity, from karting to Formula 1 and survival racing, requires perfect vision from the driver or pilot of the car. Firstly, any glasses narrow the view. Secondly, it is unrealistic to cope with the lens, if it suddenly itches in the eye, at high speed and wearing a helmet.

Survival races, when pilots compete on particularly difficult and muddy tracks, are all the more incompatible with any delicate optics. In this case, the eyes must be protected, and not crawled into them with dirty hands. And even if you are not driving, but managing a route, distraction due to discomfort in the eyes can be dangerous for the entire crew.

3. Photographer

Now that everyone has a camera, anyone can call themselves a photographer. But we're talking about becoming a real photographer. The one who will go to the ends of the world for pictures. Or one that picks up the smallest shade of color. Or one that will notice a unique frame in something ordinary. Refractive anomalies don't just blur the picture in front of your eyes - they make the whole world a little dimmer, paler, and duller.

4. Programmer

You are probably laughing to yourself now, because when did poor eyesight interfere with the programmer? So, it always interferes. Strenuous work at the computer is a risk factor, and it is supposed to be done according to the norms for only a few hours a day. Do you think it has nothing to do with it? Meanwhile, labor legislation has long said that the worse the eyesight, the fewer these working hours should be.

In addition, if there are refractive errors, then when working with any screen, even the most modern one, you will have to strain your eyes additionally. And this already means that fatigue and tension headaches will appear not even at the end of the working day, but closer to lunch.

Of course, you can become a great programmer with thick glasses. But it's much easier to decide on a single operation and code at least all night long.

5. Bodyguard or security guard

We are now talking about all the guards: in a huge supermarket, militarized guards, cash collection, where it is allowed to carry weapons and salaries for this occasion are considerable. To become a collector, bodyguard or security specialist, you need sharp eyesight (and not only in order to shoot, but also in order to correctly assess the environment). This is a work where the body is a machine, and this machine must function without interruption.

6. Polar explorer

Polar exploration is, of course, not one profession, but a whole list. In fact, this is everyone who works in the Far North and low temperatures. For some, a polar explorer is a huge salary, for others - a vocation and romance, a special northern beauty and aurora borealis. But according to our laws, there is a LIST OF WORKS, WHICH ARE PERFORMED BY MANDATORY PRELIMINARY AND PERIODIC MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS (SURVEYS) OF EMPLOYEES, in order to go to explore a difficult climate or work at a deposit of good minerals, one must have healthy eyes, including.

Correction of vision with glasses and lenses is allowed, but who guarantees that the glasses, even the most modern ones, will not be covered with frost, and the lenses will not be frozen directly into the storage solution? Fortunately, going for money or romance is quite easy if you correct your vision.

And how should everyone else work?

Everyone needs good vision. This is the opinion of us and the specialists of the 3Z Clinic, together with which we prepared this material.
