And most people on here slag drivers when they have their curtains pulled across their windows but they themselves then wear sunglasses when it’s dark and grey
If you consider wearing sunglasses in overcast conditions a threat to road safety due to reduced vision then I think it’s you that needs an eye test.

But why would you want to make an already dark and gloomy day even darker on the eye by wearing sunglasses?

Might of had a headache coming on though a combination of stress/fatigue. This has happened to me before I’ve had to drive to work, just pop a couple of ibuprofen, stick some sunglasses on and the headache will normally calm down by the time I get to work (when on a 2-10 shift).
Personally I can’t stand headaches, they knock me sick. Better to catch them early before they develop. light doesn’t help (doesn’t have to be bright if in that situation).
Regarding the original post, the person might have photophobia to some extent.

For me the cause is usually my kids lol
Funny this subject should come up now.
Sunglasses are extremely bad for your eyes… This is genuine. Just this morning I came round the bend from the M40 west onto the M25 south and got a face full of low sun, and in my haste to don my shades I poked one of the arms straight into my right eye. So my sunglasses cost me 50% of my vision for about half a mile!
Seriously though, those polarised lenses are brilliant, and despite every instinct telling you not to wear them in the lashing rain, they really do help.

Polarising lenses improve not impair vision

Polarising lenses improve not impair vision
How?
If they do improve vision then maybe the person needs an eye test in the first place.
Are you suggesting that if someone with already perfect vision then puts some of these lenses on that he or she will automatically have even more improved vision?
Ahh 3 pages of absolute ■■■■…

i use to have a pair of those night time driving glasses that had the yellow lens, they were brilliant never got blinded by the knob coming towards you when they forgot to dip
Yeah, I got given some for Christmas years ago and I used to find mine beneficial at night but a combination of reading something about the science of them online that they reduce overall distance of vision and overhearing another driver who’d bought some because he’d seen someone wearing them on Ice Road Truckers convinced me to sling them.

Somebody else that reads stuff that isn’t there, I only commented because of your ridiculous over the top statement previously. Typical Trucknet rubbish. But for one thing polarising lenses reduce haze a great deal. Ask any photographer who buys polarising lenses how much of a difference they make. No such thing as perfect vision, a humans vision coud always be improved. If we ad perfect vision we coud see a much wider range of the spectrum.

You said polarising lenses improves vision did you not?
And I’m asking you a question that’s all.
So if I start wearing glasses with polarising lenses my vision will be improved will it?

Realisticly i dont think it will get past 4, but im going to say 5 pages because some of the people on trucknet never cease to amaze me with the amount of crap that can come up with.
I’m beginning to wonder if The Real John and Farnborough Boy are one and the same. I’ve got about 48 years of driving experience and have worn shades for most of that time because whether it’s bright sunshine or overcast and full of glare, polaroids really help. Another plus is that crumpet can’t see you perving on them so easily.

That’s a strange assumption
How did you come to that conclusion?

Not an assumption or conclusion… just wondering, seeing as how you seem to be agreeing with him. I was told by an opthalmic surgeon to keep wearing sunnies to slow down the cataract I had coming in my left eye, after he’d taken one out of my right eye. Eyesight’s much too precious to ■■■■ around with or worry about whether or not some daft bar steward thinks you look like a nob, prat or anything else.

In a word, yes. Now quit whining! Go to your local opticians, get a pair and see for yourself
