Could anyone clarify the vision requirements for me. I was in the army's recruiting website chat room, and was told that if you have correctable vision to 20/20 with diopeters of up to -8.00, that your eligibile. That seems pretty lenient, but good for me. Is it true? My vision is 20/20 corrected but 20/200 uncorrected. Do I still a have a chance?

Determine the Warrant Officer (WO) Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) for which you might be qualified. The most common MOS that personnel from other services are eligible to apply for is 153A (Aviator) because this MOS requires no prior skills or training. For this MOS you must be less than 29 years of age by the convene date of the board (or request a waiver) and have 20/50 distant visual acuity, correctable with spectacles to 20/20, also note there is an Aeromedical refractive error exception to policy (LASIK/PRK information.http://www.usaarl.army.mil/). All other Warrant Officer (WO) Military Occupational Specialties (MOSs) require you to be at least pay grade E5 or higher with 4-6 years experience in a skill that is closely associated with a WO MOS. Review the Prerequisites and Duty Descriptions part of this web site to determine if you are doing very similar work to one of the WO MOSs.
