Employer Obligations
The Department of the Environment requires all drivers and learners to have an eye examination when applying for a driving licence. Download the form..
You require a Driver Vision Certification, stating that you are visually fit to drive when you apply for a licence. You have no obligation if you already have a licence. However if you have not had an eye examination, it is most important that you have even minor visual corrections made to ensure you have your best vision possible for night time driving. That extra few meters of visual recognition might be the difference that saves a life and avoids a serious accident.

Colour Vision and Occupational Issues
Many professions require prefect colour vision as a prerequisite to taking up employment. It is a good idea to bring your son or daughter for a colour vision test when considering career opportunities. Very few people are totally colour blind, but there are many, particularly males, who have deficiencies in recognising particular colours. This is often unrecognised until they complete the Ishihari colour test.
The requirements for pilots are one of the most demanding. The demand for electricians is not as high. You might fail the pilots test, but pass on the electrical wire test. View minimum standards of eyesight for occupations.
