Driving is a big part of many of our lives and clear, comfortable vision is an important aspect of driving safety.  

Glasses can significantly impact the quality of our vision while driving, thereby directly impacting your safety on the road. 

Why do you need driving glasses?

One of the most common problems for drivers is glare that can be defined as a reflection of light that can create eye strain, impede vision and make the surface it is reflected off difficult to see.

 - Or simply put; a bright shining light, when driving in the dark or when the sun reflects off the hood of a car during the day. -

Contrast sensitivity looks at how well a person can see in low contrast lighting conditions including when there is fog present, at night and when glare is present making it an important aspect in providing for sharper and safer driving conditions

Do driving glasses actually help?

These driving glasses are specially designed to make the driving experience safer by cutting down on the glare allowing you to pick up objects in low lighting and providing optimal vision throughout the day.

The anti-glare coating on these lenses helps to reduce the glare experienced during night time driving from the street lights or head lamps from oncoming cars.

Driving glasses help to reduce the harmful UV and Blue light.
