“I will be disqualified because of my glasses, but my perscription is within waiverable limits” Actually what the DODMERB report will indicate is that you will be “waiverable” for USNA. You would only be disqualified if you aren’t correctable to 20/20 or if your uncorrected eyes are out of the waiverable limits. The best way to get a waiver and be part of that 30% is to make your file as competitive as you can (the folks above have given great advice on how to do that). There was a rumour last year that you couldn’t get an LOA from the Naval Academy if you needed an eye waiver, that is incorrect. Good luck!
