Default Carrying glasses?

I had a student that used monovision contacts for distance/near vision.
I'm not sure how but she managed to get an unrestricted medical that
allowed her to use them in flight. I guess I could have challenged it
but it didnt' seem to give her any problems and I figured if the ME
authorized it, it probably wasn't my place to second guess it. As CFIs
we tend to advocate for the students vs. the ME.

If HOWEVER, you need close distance correction, you will also have an
endorsement that says "must possess corrective lenses..." You can't
use monovision contacts either.
