Failed Vision Test at DMV

Anonymous
Not sure if this is the correct place to post but my teen was going for their knowledge test and failed the vision test. Was not allowed to take the test and was given the medical/eye form. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get it done quickly and with insurance. We are in DC and willing to travel if they'll fill out the DC DMV form. TIA!

Is this a situation where a kid’s vision is corrected as well as can be, and you want a waiver, or a situation where kid needs glasses or an updated prescription to then try again?

Wonderful. Will call them now. By the way, the DC Costco will do it and takes a couple of insurance plans but I wanted a closer appointment. Thanks again!

Good question. Not sure and will respect what the eye exam finds, even if that means she can't take the test for a while. She currently wears glasses but the prescription hasn't been updated in over a year. She could read the top two lines with and without glasses but not the last line with the smallest characters.

Me again. Do you know what will happen? We've never been through this situation. Her dad has terrible vision and has been wearing very high prescription glasses since he was a small kid but never failed this test with his glasses on. I do not wear glasses at all and have no issues passing this test.

Why would getting new glasses mean she can’t take it for a while? I think it’s unlikely that you will need the form, and more likely that she just needs a new prescription.

I see. We will get her new glasses with an updated prescription anyways, since she seems to need it. I thought that would mean she can't take the test for a while because getting new glasses is not a quick thing. They probably won't be ready until after the New Year.

There are plenty of places where you can get same day eye glasses.

When you are at the optometrist, get her prescription fixed, but also get them to fill out the form. Having the form done, meant no anxiety for my son so that he could just focus on passing the test.

Yes. lol. There’s a heist planned and we also want to take the opportunity of 2 weeks off of school to start driving lessons while it’s light out.

What a bummer! If you really want, I think you can get same day glasses (and the dr will fill out the form), and you can take the test again tomorrow.
