Much of the time people hand me stuff to read the fine print, whether they are old, young, glasses or not.
What specifics should I be looking for to signal it's time for optical assistance?
Might have to get closer on a few items during daylight....it's night vision that I saw evaporate quickly when flying.

I always passed the DOT with 20/20 both near and far when in reality my near vision is 20/30 in my port eye and and 20/55 in my starboard eye. Far vision being 20/50 in my left and 20/20 in my right eye.😊
Not hard to fudge the simple stand behind the line and cover one eye test.
