Night Driving Glasses - Enhance Night Vision & Reduce Glare for Safer Driving

Night Driving Glasses 

Driving at night can be a real challenge for many of us. Our depth of field is severely reduced in the dark, compounded by the glaring headlights of on-coming cars. Add to that obscure shadows and inclement weather and you’ve got the potential for real trouble.

But fear not. There are glasses for night driving, like the HD Night Vision Goggles, that cut down on headlight glare and add contrast to nighttime objects and roads, making it easier for you to see.

The Human Eye At Night

According to the American Optometric Association (AOA) website, “The retina contains receptor cells, rods and cones, which, when stimulated by light, send signals to the brain. These signals are subsequently interpreted as vision. The rods are responsible for vision under very dim levels of illumination (scotopic vision) and the cones function at higher illumination levels (photopic vision).”

The AOA goes on to say, “Sensitivity of the eye automatically adjusts to changes in illumination. The effects of decreased illumination on operational visual function can be dramatic. Visual acuity may be reduced to 20/200 or less, color vision is lost, blue-green lights will appear brighter while red lights will appear dimmer, problems may occur with night myopia, depth perception is degraded, glare is a factor, and a central blind spot is present.”

Some Key Nighttime Driving Statistics From Department of Transportation and National Highway Safety Administration:

• At 60 mph, the average low-beam headlight illuminates 160 feet ahead of you, but average stopping distance is 270 feet. With an average 1.5 second reaction time and 4.5 second stopping time, you need a full 6 seconds at 60 mph during optimal conditions to bring your passenger car to a complete stop.
• Older drivers, age 60 to 75, have about double the reaction time of younger drivers, age 18 to 30, resulting in more accidents at night for older drivers.
• 49 percent of all accidents happen at night.
• There are nearly 20 percent more speeding-related accidents at night and the number of accident fatalities is higher at night as well.
• More alcohol-related accidents occur at night
• Drowsiness and falling asleep at the wheel are two leading causes of nighttime vehicle accidents.

What This Means To You

Essentially, we need to increase our awareness while driving at night. One way to do that is by increasing our visual acuity (clearness of vision,) after nightfall. Our eyes adjust automatically the longer we remain in darkness, but they are only capable of adjusting to the darkness by so much.

There are simple biological limitations in place that prohibit the human eye from fully seeing at night without external assistance. And that’s where night driving glasses can be a big help.

HD Night Vision Goggles

Night time driving glasses like the HD Night Vision Goggles can help reduce glare, increase visual acuity and minimize natural blind spots. And all of this helps restore reaction time, which can be affected adversely because a decreased ability to properly judge distances at night.
