Do Yellow Lenses Improve Nighttime Vision?

No, yellow lenses do not improve nighttime vision.

Our eyes function the best when we allow as much light in as they can tolerate. Yellow lenses can block 20% or more of incoming light from entering your eye which would lead to poorer low light vision.

What does this mean for nighttime driving? What can you do to improve your nighttime vision?

1) Keep on top of getting your eyes checked regularly. Even a small change in your prescription can make nighttime vision clearer.
2) Choose clear lenses with an anti-reflection coating. Anti-reflection coatings allow 99% of light to pass through the lenses cleanly. This helps reduce glare from oncoming headlights and streetlights. Lenses without anti-reflection coatings only allow 75% of light to pass through.
3) Make sure your glasses are clean and your anti-reflection coating is in good condition.
4) Ensure your windshield is crack and chip free.
5) Keep your windshield clean, inside and out. When was the last time you cleaned the inside of your windshield? You might be surprised at how dirty it is!

What are yellow lenses good for?

1) They are typically used as a sporting lens colour. For example, they can help increase contrast and make it easier to spot flying objects in the sky.
2) Yellow neutralizes blue. If you’re especially sensitive to blue light, yellow lenses may help.

"Ok, I know the pros and cons. Are they available in a clip-on?"

Yes they are, and they’re part of our clip-on sale for only $85 down from $100. All of our clip-ons are handmade in house with same day turn around time, often in less than 45 minutes.

Stage 3 is nearly upon us, so there will be a few changes happening around here effective July 5th.

Our hours of operations and staffing will be expanded. The new hours will be:
- 10am to 6pm Monday to Friday.
- 10am to 5pm Saturday by appointment only
- Extended evening hours will be available on Thursday and Friday by appointment only.

- As per the Alberta College of Optometrists masks are still mandatory for all visitors, patients and staff until further notice.

- Reduced capacity limits will still be observed and the front door will be locked when we reach capacity.

- Walk-ins are welcome, but appointments are encouraged. Appointments will be prioritized over walk-ins.

- Everyone will be asked to sanitized their hands before they interact with our product.

All of these restrictions will change, become more flexible and eventually drop as more Albertans are fully vaccinated and COVID-19 cases continue to improve.
