I don't need glasses fro driving, so have normal frames. My wife does need glasses so bought the clip on type. She gets on very well with them and she is fussy.

Great thread. I also do 50% of my 800-1000 weekly miles at night and its getting tougher so I appreciate the input from fellow members with suggestions.
On a side note, its not only bad installations of upgraded head lights but, there are so many vehicles with misaligned headlights, (where a lamp assembly has been removed/replaced and not aligned after fitment etc). I have seen some good upgraded light installs which don't cause glare but, in with upgrades everyone wants cheap and cheerful, rather than invest a bit of time and a little extra money to do it right! Some SUV type vehicles and some of our family Range Rovers I find annoying, as at certain angles, such as when they come around a corner there are moments when they are uncomfortably blinding on OEM lights.

A recent car advert (Vauxhall I think) claiming 30% brighter lights for safer night driving made me laugh. . . Safer for who FFS. ????? People coming towards them can't see a thing FFS. Never used to mind driving at night, but really don't relish the thought of it now.
