I have -1, 1 vision. I’m worried I may not be able to join the infantry because of this, is this true?

    Hi Theo,
    To find out, I would just apply.
    When you apply, you're not making a commitment to join, and you'll have a medical assessment that will determine if you're eligible to join.
    Unfortunately, this forum isn't the best place to ask as it's designed to allow potential recruits to ask serving soldiers about life in the Army. We aren't the ones who will review your medical records or decide if you can join.
    I've met plenty of serving soldiers who wear glasses, so it's not uncommon for people to join without having perfect vision.
