      In germany you get info on your drivers license that says if the persons needs Glasses for driving. When the police stops you and sees no glasses on you then its like driving without a drivers license afaik

          I really dunno. They have different numbers that allow for glasses, contacts or both. So even when you transition to contacts you need to update your drivers license.

          But then, good question. How do they check that.

        It’s the same in the US. They test your vision when you go to get your license, they print the restriction on your license, and you legally cannot drive without them.

      He refuses to wear glasses while driving “because all the lights hurt my eyes”.

      If your eyes aren’t used to glasses, guess what? You get a headache. If you wear them long enough, your body gets used to them, and you stop getting headaches.
