    Hey have a quick question for the masses, Are there any companies that use the snelling wall chart for company vision testing when doing your physical, I have the hardest time with the eye machine they make you use at the DMV. Thanks

    That's what I thought, I remember bout 8years ago when I went with prime, I thought the doctor brought his own eye machine for drivers to use, like the ones at the dmv. If its a wall chart I shouldn't have any problems.
     
    CrappieJunkie Thanks this.

    There maybe a few outfits that use the machines, but mostly I have seen the charts mostly. Hope it helps.

    I can only attest to the ones that I know and those would be Crete/Shaffer, USA Truck, and Werner. You can do better than all those. I would assume that thr majority of them do, but cant say for sure.

    My company uses same MD office for DOT & drug screens. You walk past the eye chart on way to bathroom to give a urine sample.

    Did you know Google has image of every eyechart? I heard that somewhere.
