I heard that the shuttle crew per se is supposed to have good vision,
not requiring eyeglasses.  Mission specialists are supposed to have
vision good enough so that if they lost their eyeglasses, they would be
able to find them.  Apparently, this requirement has been relaxed
further for the passengers who will not be performing any important
functions on the mission, other than enjoying the ride.
