Night Blindness
Driving during the darker hours of the day can be difficult when you have night blindness. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
About This Condition
People with night blindness (also called impaired dark adaptation) see poorly in the darkness but see normally when adequate amounts of light are present. The condition does not actually involve true blindness, even at night.
Symptoms
Symptoms include difficulty seeing when driving in the evening or at night, poor vision in reduced light, and feeling that the eyes take longer to “adjust” to seeing in the dark.
