I know that every student don't have perfect vision in both eyes 20/20. I was diagnosed with a lazy eye ever since I was younger. My parents fail to try to correct that problem. They were unaware of the possibilities and treatments available at the time. I think they didn't realize it was a big issue at all. With my lazy eye (right eye) I was denied from going in the military, driving a bus for my state transit, being a police officer and being a fireman. Is there anyone else that have issues with their vision also? Any advice or help from medical pro. out there........?

Specializes in PeriOp, ICU, PICU, NICU.

I am not a nurse but can't see an issue with nursing. Good luck. :)
