See, here's the thing. She only has 20/40ish in one of her eyes, and 20/20 in the other, so when she takes the test with both eyes, she's fine. Only problem is, when they test her left eye alone, it's a little sketchy. I just chatted with her and she said she doesn't understand why the AME would want her to get glasses if she checks out fine with both eyes. It's not like she's going to be flying with her right eye closed.
What booker said...they test each eye individually AND both eyes together. Some AME's might allow some wiggle room on 20/25 for a long-standing customer, but not 20/40 for a first class.
