    I put my county in there - I presume this is purely for demographic reasons. Plus they already asked for our 'area in the UK' at the start of the survey.

    Help needed on Q14-
    To meet the minimum eyesight standard for driving, what must your visual activity be on the Snellen scale? ?




    Had a look on gov.uk - I would go 0.5 ?


    Standards of vision for driving

    You must be able to read (with glasses or contact lenses, if necessary) a car number plate made after 1 September 2001 from 20 metres.

    You must also meet the minimum eyesight standard for driving by having a visual acuity of at least decimal 0.5 (6/12) measured on the Snellen scale (with glasses or contact lenses, if necessary) using both eyes together or, if you have sight in one eye only, in that eye.
    You must also have an adequate field of vision - your optician can tell you about this and do a test.



    Lorry and bus drivers

    You must have a visual acuity at least 0.8 (6/7.5) measured on the Snellen scale in your best eye and at least 0.1 (6/60) on the Snellen scale in the other eye.
    You can reach this standard using glasses with a corrective power not more than (+) 8 dioptres, or with contact lenses. There’s no specific limit for the corrective power of contact lenses.
    You must have a horizontal visual field of at least 160 degrees, the extension should be at least 70 degrees left and right and 30 degrees up and down. No defects should be present within a radius of the central 30 degrees.
    You must tell DVLA if you’ve got any problem with your eyesight that affects either eye.
    You may still be able to renew your lorry or bus licence if you can’t meet these standards but held your licence before 1 January 1997.
    breathe in, breathe out- You're alive! Everything else is a bonus, right? RIGHT??
