MANY MOTORISTS
HAVE POOR EYES
ONLY Few More Than Half Check
Normal Vision

Only a few more than half Of the
persons applying for licenses to op-
srate motor vehicles in Connecticut
have normal vision. A considerable
number have been found to be blind
IN one eye or the other. while sub
normal vision in at least one eye
has been discovered in about As per
sent Of the applicants Five per cent
required spectacles to read at all, and
about per cent found improved vi
sion with this artificial aid.
These deficiencies in the vision Of
applicants have been discovered by
state policemen who have been Civ
Ing "eyesight" tests as part OF the
regular examination since February
a.
From among 2s221 examined,
1881 had normal vision, as de-
termined by the test. To gain rat
ing OF normal the applicant was re-
auired to read letters three-eights of
an inch high at a distance Of 20
feet. With the aid OF spectacles l.
2s3 others were able to read the let
ters at the required distance.
Nineteen persons were refused
operators licenses because OF poor
vision. Only two OF these returned
Tor q second. test. which is given
rithout charge II the application is
made to the original examiner with
in 80 days. Second tests we're given
In 81 other cases and propely ad-
justed spectacles enabled the appli-
;ant to pass the test.
Restrictions were imposed In L.
ST cases when spectacles were re-
,uired as an aid to proper vision. On
zach operators license 1t was noted
hat spectacles must be used when
ever that particular driver operated
car.
A notable discovery resulting from
he tests Is that a slightly larger
percentage OF the applicants had
poorer vision In the left eye than the
right The applicants are required
to submit to test OF each eye sep
arately and Of both eyes used to-
gether. Ratings for the left eye
alone averaged about per cent less
than for the right eye.
In the 80 cases where absolute
blindness In one eye was discovered,
30 Of the applicants were blind in
the left eye. Several Of the appli-
cants declared to the examiner that
they did not know of the blindness
until the tests were given.
The passing grade. which is listed
as 40, while the normal rating is 90,
requires that the applicant be able
to read letters 1 IA inches high at
4 distance of 20 feet. The theory
underlying the establishment Of the
passing grade is that driver who
cannot read such letters at that dis
lance would be unable to distinguish
between child and hydrant at 12O
feet. unless the child moved.
