Dear sir Hear rtos asking medical certificate but civil doctor not even consider to check . They told me simpally you can't drive
Individuals with monocular vision, meaning they have sight in only one eye, can indeed obtain a driving licence. The key requirement is a medical certificate confirming that the vision impairment does not pose a danger to the public. While regulations exist to allow this, some individuals have faced challenges with local authorities, suggesting a need to consult government doctors if private practitioners are unhelpful.

A person with monocular vision or someone with only one good eye can also get a driving license. Consult an eye specialist in your area.

The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has agreed to consider people with monocular vision for driving, but the Tamil Nadu government has been slow to implement the policy. Some activists claim that RTOs in the state reject applications from monocular candidates. However, others say that RTOs are ready to issue licenses to people who bring medical certificates one-eyed person , can be issued with a driving license if he/she is medically certified that the disability that he/she are suffering from will not be a source of danger to the public. One eyed person can apply for grant of driving license as per Section 9 of Motor Vehicles Act 1988. You may have to approach a government doctor if private doctors refuse.
