Eligible Impairment
Vision Impairment
Every Para sport sets a Minimum Impairment Criteria (MIC) — the minimum level of impairment an athlete must have to be eligible to compete. Pick your Eligible Impairment (and modality, when it changes the requirement) and Classcope shows the exact official MIC text. It never confirms you meet it — that decision is always made by an accredited classifier during Athlete Evaluation.
Vision Impairment
Para Athletics
This is the official text, not a decision. Meeting it is one stage of Classification, checked by an accredited classifier.
Minimum Impairment Criteria for this combination, straight from the official rulebook.
The Athlete's Vision Impairment must result in a visual acuity of less than or equal to LogMAR 1.0 or a visual field restricted to less than 40 degrees in diameter.
Meeting a sport's Minimum Impairment Criteria is one stage of Classification. It does not by itself determine an official Sport Class or Classification outcome.
