Hello again!

I am to see the AME within the next month and am wondering if I need to be prepared with a most current vision script before my appointment or is this something that will be covered with the AME?

Thank you!

Madeline,

I always have an eye exam about a month before seeing the AME, that way I am in new glasses and have my best vision for the AME. If you are unable to pass the vision test with the AME, they will simply defer your medical and send you to an eye doctor. In other words, go to your eye doctor first and have new glasses if need be.
