VISA Medical question

Post new topic

qasamwahid

Hello,
I have an offer from a School in Doha for the coming year. I have looked through the medical requirements and am confident I do not suffer form any of the listed conditions. However my eyesight in one eye is very weak and blurred. Could this affect my visa medical? Is eyesight checked on arrival in the medical?
Thank you,
Qasam

Nope it will not affect your visa.

Reasons for rejection of medical commission are for those contagious disease only, like if you have been found tuberculosis, HIV or Aids or if you have previous drug abuse history in your blood.
