  Eyesight requirement for a NSS is quite relaxed... as high as 500 i think is oso acceptable, while i forgot the max threshold liao...
  so what makes u wanna sign on with the navy?
  heard that now signing on very stringent liao...

  Haha...<500 seems to be quite an impossible task for me, my right eye overshot that limit and what I wanted to sign on as requires my eyesight to be <500. Wanted to sign on ADSS.
  
  Air force tech and snr tech is <800.
  
  The bus-stop near Toa Payoh Stadium got NSS ad.
