Being 6/18 in both eyes, you may be able to take the job based on the recruitment medical standards of the recruiting authority particularly, the jobs in the defence services or the government sector.
Most medical standards have certain amounts of uncorrected deficiencies in vision when vision corrected (glasses, contacts) is of the expected standard. The specific allowance depends upon a service and a post.
When the notification explains uncorrected vision allowance, then it probably means that everyone whose vision is worse than normal, but can be corrected to meet the specified requirement, can be afforded.
In order to be sure:
Ensure to read the accuracy of vision standards and allowance as stated in the official notification.
Upon permission, make sure that you attain a legal eye prescription displaying corrected eyesight within a limit.
In case of doubts, a certified medical officer or ophthalmologist is to be consulted to provide a report on eye examination.

Hey! Because your birthday is on May 22, 2010, in 2025 you will be 15. And it is quite normal that at your age you are in Class 11. In 2026, youwill be going up to Class 12. Then simply concentrate on completing Class 11 well, since Class 12 is crucial in terms of board exams and choices of careers. Stay regular with your studies, follow your hobbies and begin to consider which stream or career you require after Class 12. You’ve got plenty of time and opportunities ahead—just stay confident and work smart!

HEY THERE!!!
- Unfortunately, you do not qualify for NDA 2 2025 if your birthdate is in November 2006.
- The specified eligibility window requires candidates to have been born between January 2, 2007, and January 1, 2010.
- Since your birth falls before this range, you do not meet the age criteria set for this examination.
- It would be advisable to explore alternative opportunities or eligibility options.
Tanisha chaudhary 08 June,2025
Hello,
The NDA exam conducted by UPSC has strict age eligibility criteria. For the NDA II 2025 exam, which is scheduled to be held in September 2025, only candidates born between January 2, 2007, and January 1, 2010 (both dates inclusive) are considered eligible. Since your son was born on November 1, 2006, he unfortunately does not fall within this age range, making him ineligible for the NDA II 2025 exam as per the current guidelines.
Hope this helps. All the best!
