Starting January 1, 2025, all Kentuckians must undergo a vision screening to renew their license. Vision screenings can be completed at no cost at any Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) Driver Licensing Regional Office at the time of license renewal. Drivers also have the option of conducting a vision exam with their vision specialist (optometrist/ophthalmologist), or a vision screening with a KYTC-credentialed medical provider in advance of their license renewal visit.
