The instructions with this visor clearly state that you must not look through it, because the plastic will distort any view. It's more of a visor extension. It doesn't brighten the night time view, it darkens it, but I guess it could help cut down on glare from overhead street lighting.

This visor is not polarized so I don't think you will be able to see clearly through it at night. I love mine for the sun's glare, but I do NOT look through it to drive. I tilt it to block the afternoon sun from my eyes, but always have vision through my car's windshield and not the visor. I hope this was helpful.

This is not recommended for night driving although it would work. The chance of cutting out something you need to see is rather great, it would seem to me. I use night vision sunglasses to cut down on glare and they work much better. Either the yellow or the light brown work well. GMM

Sorry I don't know, I bought these for my parents for daytime driving, they don't drive after dark

I'm using the original and have it clipped to the temples of my glasses. I found the distance between the mirror and my eye perfect, getting a good view of what's behind me. However, I tried moving it back to simulate a compact, I found it quite impossible to view the mirror. Might work if clipped to some part of your helmet visor though. I don't want to have it on my helmet as I'm usually quite rough with it.

Hello Craig, I bought the standard ones because I like the shiny look.I have used anti glare before and it seems OK.it does seem like you lose a little definition if you do use anti glare. If you are using it in a really bright area all the time then I'd say get it.otherwise I'd prefer the standard.

Visor generally works great, but I agree that it doesn't totally shield intense sunlight you get in the mornings and late afternoons when you face it. I'm not blinded by it, but I'm aware of it.

When I wear sunglasses it doesn't work for me but if I don't wear them (which I need) the anti glare works pretty good. Hope this helps

Well yes and no.....it works perfectly well as far as the visor itself. My problem with it is that it's much too small for use in my van (the TV commercial shows semi-truck drivers using it- there's no way that would work -too big a windshield and the area covered by the visor is too small). However in my daughter's car it works fine. But it makes driving into glare much much easier, both at night and during the day.

I use them for night and rainy driving, and I think they're very good at brightening things up. I don't know if they block blue light completely, because I haven't anything to compare to. I just know they work for me and I have a pair in each vehicle.

I had the same problem with one window. The window is supposed to stop when it senses something in the way of closing. I had someone pull out on the visor while I put the window up. I kept the window up for a couple of days, and allowed the rubber trim adjust to the difference in width. never had a problem again. I will add that it was summer when I did this, and I would assume that it will take longer if it is cold out.

I would say more for day time use, but you could use it for night if you are traveling on well lit city streets or have it set up in a way that when getting blinded by on coming headlights you just have to shift your head to keep that from happening.

These are wonderful especially for us glass wearers. They block the sun from all over, even from the sides. I bought a pair to keep in each car and my friend who is (was a long time ago) a red head and light complected and very sensitive to sun found these glasses to be great and he doesn't wear them over glasses. I'd give it a try and see what you think. I think you'll be happy. John

Yes, it helps. It's good, too, when night road crews use krieg lights to work. I wouldn't say it's amazing, but it's like sunglasses. I bought this product two years ago and I have seen a similar product on TV promising more in the glare-blocking department. So do your homework. This is a good product; there may be better. (On the other hand, there may be more hype on other brands. This is solidly made and pretty good.)

Hi Sally, If the car visor is at a 90 degree angle from the roof of the car, the gap shows and sunlight comes through. But by tilting the car visor 80-85 degree angle and with the attached visor pulled down, the gap is not seen. Thus your eyes are not blinded by the sun. I especially love it on those times driving into the sunset.

There is one visor per order so if you want two visors then you must order two visors ie. one for the driver's side and one for the passenger's side. I debated quite some time about this purchase because of the cost but they are quality visors and well worth the price.

Its only meant to keep you drl's on at night. So they can be fog lights too. If you turn your head lights on during the day then they will all be on. If not as soon as it's dark enough they will all stay on at night

There is another pair of the exact goggles with clear lenses for night riding. Sold as a two pack here on Amazon. I switch em out at dusk with no complaints.

They aren't polarized, if they were you wouldn't be able to see your computer screen while wearing them. You shouldn't wear tinted lenses while driving at night, it's an easy way to get a ticket depending on your traffic laws. If you require prescription glasses while driving, then I suggest ordering a pair online (i.e Zenni Optical) and adding on anti-glare. Anti-glare only helps if you actually require wearing lenses though, it just reduces glare reflecting on the lenses from incoming car lights etc.

I bought these for my husband - he says they help but you will still get " some" glare ! He wears them at night too , to help with the glare from the headlights !
