It's a good point, unfortunately, I stay on top of my windshield cleaning and still have this problem. What I don't get is, where are the regulations in all of this? Shouldn't there be a glare factor standard for headlight manufacturers? We're talking 85% people complain about this? Instead of putting this coating on your glasses, can't they put it in your windshield? A good marketing tactic for cars, this car has anti-glare windshields.... that would peak my interest...

I bought these about a month ago and didn't realize what a huge difference they make until I wore a pair of regular glasses and had to drive. They truly are amazing. I have astigmatism in addition to poor night vision so night time is rough. These have made all the difference. I love them. I have also noticed wearing them during the day they seem to make things just a bit crisper. Just for info- I wear progressives and ordered them with that script.

In 1985 I bought a pair of Corning Serengeti sunglasses, they did the same thing, cut glare, improved contrast and a very low shading. I say did because two years ago I had to get persciption glasses. So I went to my sales person with my Serengeti's and got some lenses put in that do all of that with the UV blocking and a low yellowish tint. BIG difference in price. So not so much new technology, just new marketing.

The auto manufacturers cheat the SAE standards for light placement by dimming the center on axis section in order to pass the tests for certification The off axis = glare - this is the main problem Then you have the kelvin temp issues = blue = more glare Personally I love the morimoto d2s 5.0’s + 4300 kelvin philips or osram bulbs = correct temp for all conditions and road surfaces with the ability to place the light on the road only… Vehicle headlights have gone a step backwards since oem Led lights and now it’s become an arms race!! The other issue is that people are lazy and don’t wash their headlights often enough and they don’t refinish the aged versions often enough ( wet sand 3m plastic polish then clearcoat - only works for 12-24 months 🤮)

They're brighter and fill in the dark places better, but they are also less comfortable on the eyes.

I suspect this too-bright problem is like that when air bags first came out, or so I have heard. The initial requirements call for a bag that would stop a large man.

But flip side is that those headlights are too bright for other drivers.

The transition is something no lens can do, indicating it's the camera that's auto adjusting. It would have been a fair comparison if your camera's exposure wasn't set on auto. The translucent frame adds more light to the overall frame and the camera dials down the exposure, creating an illusion that the light from the pole is more tolerable.

Night vision glasses do help you some. When you have night vision issues its light someone putting a flash light right in your face. Regular night vision glasses just dull the bright light a little. Night driving isn't really an issue because it's dark, it's because of the bright lights. A car light probably covers up about 25% of my vision. I have pretty poor vision and I will not drive in the dark unless I am used to driving that route. It really isn't safe for me. I try to avoid it in general.

I do have anti-glare in my glasses since the longest time . Is this a improved version ?
@DoctorEyeHealth7 күн бұрын
There are in fact many different brands and designs of anti-reflective! Happy to hear you have been getting that because it does make a difference. This technology - including the lens itself - is a newer and different design overall.

Is this recommend for night blindness after eye procedures?
@DoctorEyeHealth7 күн бұрын
I don't think so. Theoretically, they may help a little but all the research on the lens designs I have read was not performed on anyone with such a scenario. But if you decide to try them please let us know how they help!

I'd like to differ with your opinion about the blue dot reflection. It's extremely distracting, and it falls on different areas within your vision, depending upon one's prescription. So, where the dot will appear will differ from one to another. If you're one of the unlucky ones, then those reflections will appear right around the light source, and will make your vision even worse at night. I'm speaking from personal experience.

They should ban those Led lights they are aweful for opposite side drivers facing ... can't see especially worse if raining or no city lights ...

yeah it is pretty crazy some times. I hate to say but even my car has the extremely bright LED lights. I have had people flash their high beams at me while I still have my low beams on.

With all the alterations lens can provide I wonder how many lens can be stacked to independently alter vision. One for astigmatism, nearsightedness, glare, yellow block, etc. I don't know the extremities of particular limitations of my vision since my glasses help all with same lenses.

No mention of price, and the Zenni site seems to want to make it impossible to know the price. Even an approximate range mor % would have helped.
@DoctorEyeHealth7 күн бұрын
Ah - thanks for that feedback, i think price is a little tough sometimes with glasses because there can be a large range depending on the frame selected, the lens material and other add-ons. But I will keep this in mind for future videos. Cheers

@@DoctorEyeHealth This was my experience: I went to the Zenni website and could not find any mention of pricing of the glare-reducing lenses. Not in the FAQ. They talked about frame cost but not lens cost. It seemed they wanted us to go through ordering steps to know the price. I have worn glasses for many years and know there is a big range. The frame is a big variable but beyond that we can get a decent cost estimate of lens types and treatments, either an amount or %. If it's complicated, they can give a few examples. I was only trying to know if it's $50 or $500. What's worse: After I exited the site, I was bombarded with Zenni ads on Instagram, Facebook and KZbin. Black Friday sales! Arghh.

Dr Allen do you still not recommend buying off of zenni if you have progressive/bifocals? I watched an older video of yours in which you said you only recommend ordering online if you have a single vision prescription. Please let me know! I want to order off of zenni but I am nervous and skeptical! I love your videos!!!!

If you’re old, and all of a sudden you can’t drive at night , it’s because of cataracts.

likely true - AMD can also be a cause of night blindness

The worst cause of glare is badly adjusted head lights, see it a lot even in the UK with annual inspection , must be a nightmare in jurisdictions with no or poor inspection laws.

Lenses with mesh/net inside? I am not sure what you mean by that. Can you describe that better or link to a product so I can check it out? Otherwise, I am happy to hear you are liking them!
I’m 51 and drive to work at 5am in the dark and doesn’t bother my eyes nearly as much as when I go home after dark in evening. Seems much harder to see. Tired and more traffic I’m guess makes it worse. I try not to drive at night now unless I have too. 😕
@DoctorEyeHealth7 күн бұрын
That's a great insight! I think being tired does add to it, in addition, I think of how many of the new headlights are LEDs and LEDs technically are flickering at a super high rate. I wonder if many cars showing flickering LEDs can have an additive effect on our visual system.

I had Cataract Surgery and IOL Lens replacement. I now suffer from the " Halo " effect when driving at night. All Lights, Headlights, Traffic Lights, Lamp Lights even Day Time Car Headlights have the Halo effect. Will these glasses reduce the the effect of my problem?
@joshf5144Күн бұрын
I have set of Zeiss Drivesafe lenses and have noticed great clarity, but the blue reflections for me are too much. Any oncoming headlights I get the blue glare off the lenses, I've found it quite distracting. Have you tried those as a comparison, and if so, is the reflective glare any different between the two? As an optician I was finally hoping for a solution for my patients, but seems like I'm still waiting. But maybe I suffer from the eye nerd issue as well, and it wouldn't bother others as much.
