Default 20/20 Vision?

Does FedEx really require 20/20 in both eyes still? I thought most carriers were just unrestricted First Class medical, but "Do you have 20/20 vision?" is on the pilot profile and, if you answer no, the very next page is "you are not eligible for this position."

Read it again it is probably correctable to 20/20.

They’d have to fire 2/3+ of us if they required uncorrected 20/20! They’re talking about correctable vision.

What if you don’t have 20/20 correctable in both eyes? I.e. possess a SODA (waiver).
