I am 22 and live in CA. I have about 20/70 vision with my glasses (which are bifocals) and I have nystagmus as well. I have been given lots of conflicting information about the possibility of driving. I would like to know exactly how I go about getting a liscence. The requirements for the state of CA are 20/40 vision so I know I can't pass the test as I am. Should I get BiOptics? Wouldnt my nystagmus make using them extremely difficult? Or are there other possibilities? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
