Good evening ladies and gents,
I recently have been extended a conditional offer from Union Pacific for train crew in houston and I go for my medical examination next week. I am worried about my vision test though as i have amblyopia in my left eye(blurred vision since i was born, basically a lazy eye that i cannot read from). when i was probably 5 or 6 i went to every eye clinic and specialist in south texas for treatments and whatnot but it never improved. I do have perfect vision in my right eye. I know the doctors arent allowed to discuss your results so has anyone heard of this on the railroad or been through it them selves? I want this more anything and would hate to lose it because of a disability i was born with.
Thanks in advance
