| Chapter 15 "Driver and Pilot Licensing Standards" In
this chapter, Mr. Brady discusses some of the licensing issues posed by having one eye.
Most importantly, he addresses the common question: "Will I be allowed to
drive?"
"However, much has been done in recent years to bring state regulations into line
with nationally recommended vision standards for drivers, and today all 50 states as well
as the District of Columbia license one eyed drivers who pass their visual tests."
(pg. 107)
"The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators and the American
Optometric Association in a jointly published booklet on visual screening for driver
licensing, remark that 'most drivers are anxious to retain driving privileges and as a
result they learn to compensate for deficiencies.'" (pg. 111)
