Driving at night can be nerve-wracking for many drivers. We can’t see well in the dark and the glare of the oncoming headlights contribute to it.
68% of people drive their car to and from work. Most fatal car accidents occur at night due to factors like fatigue and drowsiness.
However, investing in a pair of night driving glasses will help you avoid accidents by improving your vision.
What are Night Driving Glasses?
Night driving glasses have yellow-tinted lenses, which help decrease reflections and glare from oncoming headlights and streetlights. The yellow-tint filters out blue light to increase night-time visibility.
Some night driving glasses have an anti-glare or anti-reflective coating. This permits more light in and also cuts down on glare. The coating can sharpen vision and reduce halo around bright lights.
Here are some tips for driving safely at night:
1. Invest in night driving glasses

Clear night original night driving glasses
These are night driving glasses with an anti-glare coating. The lenses are scratch resistant as they are TAC (Tri Acetate Cellulose) polarized lenses. These offer superior vision and clarity in dim lights.
2. Clean your windshield
Make sure your windshield is clean on the inside and outside because dust and dirt can pile up and intensify glare.
Replace or clean your windshield wipers. Dirty or damaged headlights should also be cleaned or repaired.
3. Clean your prescription glasses
