    Question Vision standards

    I just went through a 2.5-year selection process, and at the last minute was not selected. Even though the DQ letter was a form letter, I was told I did not meet the "vision standards." What is considered to be normal depth perception, and is it standard for all agencies or are there varying qualifications in respect to this?

    I have seen varying qualifications, depending on department. IMO

    where you're from and where you applied to would help...
    Be advised, I'm mean nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could put a round through a fleas *** at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in.

    Depends. For instance, in St. Louis County PD you must have no less than 20/80 uncorrected to be hired. So that put me out. The agency I work for now, could care less as long as it is corrected to 20/20.

    I recently got LASIK done, and have 20/20 vision. It was well worth because you don't want to get your glasses knocked off in a fight.
    You know the difference between a job and a duty? A job you can refuse to do because it's dangerous; a duty you must do even if it is dangerous.
