How does the monovision approah https://www.aoa.org/patients-and-pub...ses/monovision

work out for pilots?

1.Does it degrade your scan for traffic on the side with close vision?

2.Does the associated degradation of depth perception affect your landings, or do you adapt after a short 'retraining period'?


My understanding is mono vision contact lenses are not approved for flying by the FAA.
