I did something similar, Gordon. My eyesight has always been OK except that as I got into my 60s I needed glasses to read small print, newspapers, etc. I used to buy simple magnifying specs which did the trick and were cheap rather than going to an optician and buying expensive corrective specs. These were good for small print up close but not so good for eyesight test cards from a distance!
The last time I went for a licence medical after listening to my heart etc. the doc did some paperwork and as I was stood fairly close to the eye chart I memorised the 4th and 5th lines down and, hey presto, I passed the test. Perhaps a bit naughty but I could certainly see marshalls' flags on the circuit.
