Driving glare from lights

Ruthy

Hi all.

Sorry if this has been discussed before, i can't seem to search for past posts.

My brother (44yrs old) over the past year is finding it increasingly difficult to drive at nighttime.

Glare from headlights, signs etc plus general definition of signage and pinpointing, for example, an exit on a motorway - He isn't dangerous but could do with being able to not be so very concentrated.

His eyesight has been checked (he does have mild glaucoma, which doesn't help i'm sure).

Would anyone with this difficulty, or experience of someone please be able to give me some tips or advice that i can pass onto my brother?

He has tried the yellow lenses glass and can't get on with them....thanks for your time,

Ruth.

  • I discovered light blue lenses the other week for driving in all conditions.  I have astygmatism in both eyes which makes glare an issue and always used orange lenses previously at night, but found they reduced my depth perception which bothers me.

    Blue lenses seem to relax my eyes in most light conditions, which reduces tiredness, and at night it takes the edge off glare without reducing clarity.  It might just be me - but i've been searching for a solution for years and this has made the most difference of anything I've tried!
