Hey everyone, prospective candidate of USNA class of 2028 and just wanted to know,
How hard is it to get a vision waiver? I’ve been looking on this forum and other forums just like this and found mixed results on getting a vision waiver. Some say its near impossible, some say they give them out like candy.
For context, the disqualifying vision for the Naval Academy is, “Refractive error exceeding + or – 8.00 diopters and astigmatism exceeding 3.00 diopters is disqualifying.” (Appendix A: Medical Considerations for Admission)
My eyes are basically -9.00 in both and astigmatism exceeding 3 in one eye, safe to say I have pretty bad eyes.
Is this the end of the line for me, or is there still hope?
