It does not matter how bad your vision is without your glasses; to be legally blind, your vision WITH CORRECTION must be worse than 20/200 in the better eye. Also if your visual field is less than 20 degrees you also qualify.

That is 20/200 best corrected. So if you see 20/200 without glasses but can be corrected to 20/20 then you are not legally blind. However if you can not be corrected to see past 20/200 then yes you are legally blind.
