Changing your driver's license because of visual aids
Source: BUS Rheinland-PfalzAccording to the Driving Licence Ordinance (FEV), road users who are unable to move safely in traffic due to physical or mental impairments may only participate in traffic if precautions are taken to ensure that they do not endanger others.
This means that if the road user discovers that his or her eyesight is no longer sufficient to safely participate in road traffic, he or she must register any visual aid that may be required.
Bus and truck driver's license holders must also pass an ophthalmological examination of vision every 5 years for renewal.
Contact the driver's license office of your district or city (main residence). The competent authority is the district administration, in large cities belonging to a district or independent of a district, the city administration.
You must be the holder of a valid driver's license.
