Didn't pass vision test during physical examination and got fired

Have been driving truck for a year; twisted ankle which then had to have another complete physical to make sure was capable of unloading trailer. Failed vision portion of test and was fired.

Had detached retina years ago but can see fine with glasses and am not considered legally blind or anything like that....now what - can I get hired anywhere?
