My medical is up in about a month and I was looking for some clarification about contact lenses and vision. I wear contact lenses because I can't see far very well. I always get confused if this means I'm near or farsighted and how I appropriately answer this question. I know it pretty simple question but when I googled I got various results thanks.

Item 17.b. Do You Ever Use Near Vision Contact Lens(es) While Flying?
The applicant should indicate whether near vision contact lens(es) is/are used while flying. If the applicant answers yes, the Examiner should counsel the applicant that the use of contact lens(es) (bifocal or unifocal) specifically for the correction of near vision is/are inappropriate. The Examiner must note in Item 60 that this counseling has been given.

If the applicant checks yes and no further comment is noted on FAA
Form 8500-8 by either the applicant or the Examiner, a letter will automatically be sent to the applicant informing him or her that the use of contact lens(es) specifically to correct near vision is/are inappropriate for flying.
