Note: Experienced Air Defence Technicians may be retained under old standard of V4, CV3, providing performance is satisfactory.
Footnotes:
1. Same cycloplegic standards as for restricted pilots and other aircrew.
2. The medical standards shown is for initial assignment to the MOSID (COATS Sub-component) occupation. An applicant with a medical category below this standard but not below V4 CV3 H4 G4 O4 A5 may be accepted for enrolment with employment limitations providing any existing medical condition will not be aggravated by military service. CF medical standards are detailed in A-MD-154-000/FP-000.
3. A higher medical standard may be applied based on job requirements.
4. Except for those (MOS ID) MOC 32 in operational roles.
5. Cyclopegic standards for restricted pilot and other aircrew apply.
6. Not all V3 applicants meet the visual requirements for Shallow Water Diver selection. Only those who see 6/30 binocularly, are correctible to V1 and have no eye disease may be selected. Any V3 applicant must normally have been examined by an Optometrist or Ophthalmologist within one year of their initial Diver PHA.
7. For those members who have an O3 medical category, who have either been enrolled into the MOSID(s) or who have undergone an AR/MEL from O2 to O3, prior to 01 April 2016, these personnel are grandfathered into the MOSID(s) at their current rank and for any future promotions within the MOSID.
For new enrollees or VOT/COTs after the 01 April 2016, O2 will be the new standard. For those members who are already in the occupation prior to 01 April 2016 and who are subsequently assigned a change in medical category from O2, an AR/MEL will be required.
8. MOSID 00343: Non-Destructive Testing Technician, Visual Acuity Standards
