Answer 1

Harbour pilots can wear contacts

To be a Marine Pilot you have to have a college degree, and they do love those with aeronautical engineering degrees best.  They do however accept "corrected lens".

Answer 3

The military changes regulations depending on need. When they need you they allow glasses and when not and they are over strength in an occupational specialty, it is non-correctable 20-20. I don't think they allow contacts at all but laser surgery is acceptable. You generally start out small with attack aircraft (oh DARN!) and work your way to big stuff so contact lenses are not acceptable, nor are they allowed in basic training.

Answer 4

This string is on BOATS AND BOATING... so can you define 'MARINE PILOT"? do you mean "Marine" as in fighting marines or do you mean "Marine Pilot" as in a harbor or river "Pilot"... If you are asking about an AIRPLANE pilot, the you may want to ask this in the aircraft catagory.
