Fly Lah!

Hello.. I'm very confused about that.. if someone wear glasses can he or she becomes a pilot? if cannot, why?? what about the academics qualification? please, help me.... tq very much...

Yes you can but it depends on your visual acuity. Most airlines require a 6/60 correctable to 6/6. For academic qualifications, MAS requires SPM with 5 credits with a B in physics and English or maths (I forgot which) while SIA requires 5 credits in O-Level WITH AT LEAST A-Levels qualification. Hope this helped.

I'm qualified what you stated =>

Good for you! :D I'm not sure about my own eyesight actually. 2.50 on the left and 0.25 on the right. I guess its better than 6/60.

My eyes are weird, left 100 myopia, non astigmatism, but then my right eye 25myopia then 100 astigmatism.. Crazy right!!

Can, nowadays 400-500 per eye easily can pass. Its more of "as long correctable" thingy and clear of any eye disease will do.
