What is the vision requirement for obtaining a driver's license in New Hampshire?

Asked a year ago
In order to obtain a driver's license in New Hampshire, applicants must meet a vision requirement. The state mandates that individuals need to have a visual acuity of at least 20/40 in one eye, with or without corrective lenses. Additionally, they are required to have a horizontal visual field of at least 120 degrees. Applicants may be asked to take a vision screening test during the application process. If they fail to meet the required vision standards, they may need to provide further documentation from an ophthalmologist or optometrist. It is important to ensure that your vision meets the state's requirements before applying for a driver's license to ensure a safe driving experience.
