No, but you'll need to have corrective lenses that allow you to pass an eye test during the medical examination that is necessary to receive a pilot's certificate (in the U.S.).

Can stress mess with you eyes how do you make it go away?

Stress can affect your eyes/vision in a number of ways. If stress is keeping you from getting enough sleep, it can cause your eyes to feel dry and blurry. Also, stress can raise your blood pressure, which will also affect your eyes/vision. Stress is also one of the major causes of headaches, which affect your eyes/vision, as well. You need to see your physician or your optometrist to make sure there is nothing else going on with your eyes, though.


Do you need 20 20 vision to be a pilot?

Civilian Pilot: It needs to be Correctable to 20-20 to be a civilian pilot. So you can wear glasses and fly. Military: You need to have 20-20 vision uncorrected to be a pilotso you would have to get laser eye surgery to be a military pilot, however other military employments in an airborn craft maynot need glasses. Such as a navigator. Answer two: It depends on your country of origin mostly. Here in Canada you need: Civilian: 20/30 corrected/uncorrected. Military: 20/20 corrected. Since last year, glasses are now allowed. Laser eye is still not and according to my local recruiter, probably never will be.
