How Do Bright Lights Affect Your Visual Comfort While Driving After Dark?

Dark skies combined with bright lights reduce visibility when driving at night. Plus, many people report that headlights and other LEDs on the road are a major problem for their light sensitivity, regardless of cause.1-3

Research shows that contrast and visual comfort can be increased at night with tinted lenses that reduce the blue light that modern headlights and streetlights are awash in.4-6 Night driving glasses with anti-reflective coating reduce glare even further by limiting reflections off the back of your lenses.

As a result, improving light management for better functioning as a nighttime driver has become a top priority for many people.

TheraSpecs for Light Management

Discover our two night driving glasses tailored to your specific needs:


If you’re struggling with bright headlights and streetlights or know that you are generally sensitive to light, TheraSpecs Flex is a recommended addition to your light management toolkit at night. These lenses target specific wavelengths of light between 480-520nm for protection against disruptive light sources on the road. The anti-reflective coating reduces glare off the back of the lenses for further defense.

Opt for TheraSpecs Contrast HEV™ if your primary goal is to filter the wavelengths of blue light that are both UV and just above UV, which may increase contrast and improve visibility as part of an overall light management plan. The tint and anti-reflective coating also help manage glare from bright lights.

Both of these lenses are also versatile enough to be worn during screen use and anytime you need extra help. They both reduce general blue light exposure, allowing for a more comfortable digital experience.

Please note that these are the only two TheraSpecs lenses suitable for driving at night. Other lenses are too dark for use while driving after dark.

TheraSpecs Lenses:

  • May increase contrast and sharpness by blocking light just above the UV spectrum (Contrast HEV)
  • Filter problematic wavelengths of light from LEDs and other artificial sources on the road
  • Limit glare with anti-reflective coating to keep light from reflecting into your eyes
  • Are light enough that they are legal to wear while driving at night in most locations*
