Can you apply for SF if you have corrected 20/25 (near vision, left eye)?

Joe I am pretty sure if you are correct to 20/20 that should not be a factor. I have not had uncorrected 20/20 my entire time in SF. Reference preparing for SFAS; the 25 meter target is get your feet tough, your back/body and mind strong. It is not undoable by any stretch, however, they will test you in every way possible. You are being tested even when you don't think you are being tested. Joe easy way to look at it is "they" are charged with finding the best candidates to attend the SFQC. My suggestion is the best you can, that means sometimes you may have to put out 100% sometimes maybe so maybe no.

Your eyesight needs be CORRECTABLE to 20/20. That’s not 20/20 uncorrected. I have plenty of regimental brothers that wear glasses/contacts. They won’t want you wearing contacts in the field phases (hygiene), but I wouldn’t fret about 20/25 uncorrected. As long as you don’t have a funky astigmatism that doesn’t allow you to pass an SFAS physical, you should be good. If you are still worried about it, I also recommend PRK. LASIK will knock you out of some of the MFF stuff, but PRK is acceptable. Or... get some of those awesome “go-faster goggles” which are cheaper than corrective eye surgery. Glasses in the woods isn’t any fun though, and my SERE school went by in a blur (a literal blur... I couldn’t see anything with out my specs/contacts)
