Reflective paint costs money.

I do this too. Yes, it helps but I'm concerned I may run over a pedestrian in dark clothes or a black lab one night.

The issue is the night time driving glasses seem to filter wrong colors for LED lights. So unclear if they will help

I got night driving clip ons for my regular glasses. I tried them out last night and they seemed to work well. But it was late coming home, so there wasn't that much traffic. But I was encouraged. I have a very difficult time driving at night, and always have.

I also have trouble with those oncoming lights.

Following this because I am definitely having more trouble with oncoming LED lights. I didn’t know there were nighttime driving glasses.

I did this twenty years ago after a wedding because my ex was too drunk to drive but they weren't nighttime glasses, they were just Rx.

I ended up hitting a curb and blowing out a tire.

Wish we'd had uber back then.

My sister had nighttime driving glasses (different from her daytime glasses). Your eye doctor should be able to describe why these work.

For me it’s especially hard to judge distances like when changing lanes as the glaring sun behind me I can’t make out the car. With sunglasses I saw the car body not just light.

Yeah my LLM first suggested them but then said they don’t help with LED glare.

The proliferation of LED lights and idiots with misaligned or high beams makes driving blinding all the time.

Tonight I donned my green polarized aviators and it was such an improvement. No glare, no blinding lights, and I felt I could just see everything well. Even saw a pedestrian waiting to cross in the shadows.

They are not heavily tinted but are prescription polarized. Any way to assess if they are too dark and I’m missing something? Do they make night driving glasses or a coating recommended for applying to a prescription sunglasses ?
