Night Driving Glasses Questions

Glare from the headlights on cars can make it difficult to see at night. With so many different lights currently on cars – like the normal headlight, fog lamps, auxiliary lights, just to name a few – it is making it increasingly more difficult to see at night while driving. Some headlights are being placed on cars higher than they once were and that makes a huge difference to oncoming drivers. Also high intensity discharge lights are being installed into more and more cars and they produce a brighter light. Some drivers are purchasing night driving glasses to help with this problem. Many eye care professionals are recommending night driving glasses that will help protect their patients from nighttime glare from oncoming headlights.

Some questions to ask yourself before purchasing night driving glasses are: how do I find them, what is the best type to buy, and do they actually help.

You can find night driving glasses by searching online. There are many manufacturers out there that will help you to find the right fit, the right style and the right price. The best type to buy is one from a manufacture of night driving glasses that uses an anti-reflective coating on the glasses. This coating will reduce internal reflections on the lenses and it doesn’t block the light but rather it transmits more light. This will improve your vision at night. When purchasing night driving glasses be certain to buy the type with the anti-reflective coating and not a pair that is simply tinted yellow as this type of night driving glasses may reduce the glare but can also reduce your night vision. As long as you purchase the correct type of night driving glasses they will definitely help, not only at night, but this type of glasses will help distinguish fine details during the day. These night driving glasses are even being used by highway patrol troopers who do a lot of night time driving.
