I understand that the vision requirement for flight is at least 20/50 (corrected to 20/20). What I want to know is do pilots in the aircraft wear glasses or contact lenses during flight? Thanks for any responses!

Glasses only. Reason being that if there is a flash fire, you really wouldn't want contacts to melt to your eyes. It would also be a little difficult to find it and put it back in if it fell out while flying.
