Best Answer

Only at extreme G-loads will corrective lenses become a problem. During normal aerobatic maneuvers, it is uncommon for pilots to be subjected to more than about 3 G's. This is usually acceptable is as far as contact lenses or eyeglasses goes.

It should be noted that the air force allows fighter pilots to use corrective lenses, although if contacts are to be used, soft-contact lenses are required.
