So yeah if you only have one eye and you can barely read the giant E at the top of the vision chart, sorry!

Not true. Look up the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) by the EEOC. Here, I’ll do it for you. But if I am mistaken, I’d love to know where it defines the vision criteria for exclusion.
Actually, when I was looking it up, it sounds like you’re talking about being considered legally blind and qualifying for Social Security disability benefits, which is not the same as being protected under the ADA.

The latter. The government considering you disabled therefore you qualify for disability benefits.
