Explanation
To qualify for an unrestricted driver’s license, the DMV requires a minimum visual acuity of 20/40, with or without corrective lenses. When applying for a new or renewal license or permit, you must pass a vision screening. You’ll be asked to look into a machine and read a standardized eye chart to assess your acuity and peripheral vision. If the test shows that corrective lenses are needed to meet the standard, a restriction will be added to your license requiring you to wear them while driving. Failing to meet the 20/40 requirement may result in license restrictions or denial.
