Night Driving and Glare
Glare, halos, and reduced night-driving confidence can have several causes. Here is what an eye exam looks at.
Night Driving and Glare: the short answer
Glare, halos around headlights, and reduced contrast at night can involve an out-of-date prescription, the condition of the lens inside the eye, or the surface of the eye. Because several causes are possible, an examination is the appropriate next step.
Common descriptions
Patients often say oncoming headlights spread out, that street signs are harder to pick up, or that they have quietly stopped driving after dark.
What we review
Dr. Pham reviews your prescription, the clarity of the eye's internal structures, and the surface of the eye, then explains which findings relate to what you have been noticing.
