It is not bad. I had perfect vision in both eyes before my accident 15 years ago. Since then my vision has gotten worse over the years do to the additional strain on my one eye. I can not see far away...everything is blurry but with my glasses it's a perfect 20/20. I do not wear my glasses while sitting in front of the computer most times.

Thanks for all the reply's so soon! Let me clerify one thing. It's not that I was told I could not get my certification, it's that I was told I would not be able to find a job as an EMT. I just wanted to make sure that I would not have a problem once I finished nursing school. All of the job discriptions that I have read require that you have depth perception and I do not. I will check with my school to see what they say. I do not require any special devices or anything. I do wear glasses for my other eye. I do everything else that other people do, including driving, so I do not see why I would not be able to be an EMT or nurse. However, what I was told and have read, has me a little concerned about my choice of major.

Thanks for all the responses so soon! Let

Got accepted into nursing school last semester and will start fall of 2010. I am currently doing my core courses. Since it will take me awhile to get my ADN I decide to get my EMT certification. Well, I was told that I could not be an EMT because I am blind in one eye(I have no left eye) and do not have any depth perception. So before I continue on my journey and pay my way through college, will I be able to be a RN?
