The tint doesn’t block all colors of visible light equally. My headlights are the old fashioned incandescent type that throw out a warm yellowish light that isn’t blocked nearly as much by the tint being recommended as light on the blue end of the spectrum being thrown out by modern LED and HID headlights. | |||

I had a 4 hour drive Friday night and wore a pair of my yellow shooting glasses. I don't know if it was the glasses or that I was in my truck which sits much higher than my daily, but the eye fatigue was noticibly less. My 30 minute communte home from work usually leaves me half blind, so i'll try them out this week as well. ____________________ I Like Guns and stuff | |||

My inside rear view mirror has a flip-switch for anti-glare and that's been useful. My old Benz had a sensor on the rear view mirror that did this automatically. I assume OP has been using that and that it's still an issue for him. RE: sigfreund's point - I concur. Personally, I really want to see what's out there in the dark, so I had custom night-driving glasses made with zero tint whatsoever, and an anti-glare coating on the inner surface to minimize glare from lights behind. NC is very, very good about having the painted white lines on the road borders maintained, so if the glare is coming from oncoming traffic, I just look at the white line instead of straight ahead. | |||

I used to have that and used it quite often when Bubba in his 7 foot tall F5000 truck would run up behind me with his 15,000 lumen headlights but a few years back I got a backup camera installed and the screen is in the rearview mirror and I lost that little flip switch. Maybe the new one has it in the screen, I'll have to dig out the manual. | |||

It's not the lights behind that bother me. My rear view mirror automatically switches to anti-glare. The problem I have is with the lights coming at me. | |||

I tried driving this morning with just yellow tinted glasses Not my Hunter Gold prescription They worked but also my vision clarity was reduced I was Uncomfortable at times at not seeing what I needed to see If I were to go with standard yellow lenses for driving, I would probably get clip ons and only drop them down when needed Just a thought RC | |||
