I hope to learn to fly a plane one day but at $15,000 for flight school, maybe not.

Yeah, it is expensive, but since I'm making it my career it is worth the cost. ;D

You don't have to have perfect vision. I don't wear any corrective lenses, but I know a lot of people who do.

You can also get corrective surgery if you have more money to spare.

Can I get a private pilot's license? My vision is 20/40 or 0.7 on the left eye and 20/40 or 0.6 on the right eye. My dad said I may need glasses.

Oh yeah. You could get your private no problem with 20/40. You may have to get some glasses just for flying, but that won't hold you back from a private.

Why is no one answering the question!
If you are visually imparied, meanning that you dont have perfect vision or better, AND you use contacts/glasses, can you become a comercial pilot? (as in airline, not military)

I think it depends on your case. I hold a JAA Class 2 Medical and I wear glasses. Best go ask someone that does an FAA Class 1 Medical, or book in for an eye test with them and ask if you would meet the FAA Class 1 Medical requirements.

I have a class 1 medical, but I don't wear glasses. So I'm not sure about that.

It's 20/40 now but I suspect it'll be closer to 20/70 or 20/80 by the time I finish college, finish law school, get a job and get to the point where I'm making enough money and have enough free time to take flying lessons :D Oh well. My sister's vision is like 20/220 or something, she might even have problems getting her driver's license.
I have genetically derived hypertension and really bad atopic eczema. I'm guessing the eczema won't matter but the hypertension might. Oh well, I wouldn't want me behind the controls of an airplane anyways. :P

Well, I have -6 vision, no sure what that is but glasses completely correct that problem... so I dont know.
