Do You Have Issues with Glare or Night Driving?

Have you ever been driving at night and felt almost blinded by the glare?
Have you ever been driving at night and felt almost blinded by the glare?

This glare can be caused by a number of reasons.

A big cause happened when the power of headlights became deregulated. Because cars are faster now, the light needs to be stronger, which makes night driving harder in a visual sense.

Signs are highlighted, which also causes glare. 

Host of the Wizard of Eyes, Dr. Robert Abel, Jr., describes simple ways to manage dark adaptation and the low energy light waves.

For instance, Dr. Abel advises to get rid of the fluorescent lights, check out your photo-sensitizing drugs, and limit dental x-rays. It’s not just the light you see, but also what you don’t.

Nutrition also plays a key role; particularly vitamin A, Zinc, Bilberry, Lutein, Zeaxanthin, and DHA omega-3.
