Many people have likely encountered the difference between driving during the day and at night. During the day, driving is clear and sharp, but at night, it often feels less clear. Visibility while driving decreases, and the headlights from other cars or street lights scatter, making it harder to see. The situation worsens even more in rainy weather, as the reflections of water on the road further impair visibility. To make matters worse, wet roads are slippery and increase the risk of accidents.
Nowadays, there are lenses designed specifically for night driving. These prescription lenses are created for low-light conditions, reducing the scattering of light from headlights or street lights. The lenses are designed to block out disturbing light wavelengths, which improves visibility while driving at night.
A good pair of prescription glasses is one that has been measured accurately by an expert to ensure the correct prescription. They should also be comfortable to wear. It is essential to select lenses and prescriptions that are suitable for the specific purpose, such as driving at night.
