    I have a small cataract in my eye. The doctor says its not bad enough to operate on yet. I have 20/30 vision in that eye. My question is will having a small cataract in one eye disqualify me from driving a truck.

    20/40 is the minimum standard for Commercial Driver License Medical Eligibility

    Thanks, do you know if there is anything about cataracts? The doctor said I had 20/30 vision and regular peripheral vision but its kind of blurry depth perception in one eye. Its not to bad that I cant drive, at least thats how I feel. I don't know if this would prevent me from getting my CDL.
