Do you find yourself squinting through headlights, halos or bright streetlights when driving at night?
You’re not imagining it... night time glare is a common problem, especially if you already wear glasses.

The good news? Your lenses can make a big difference.
Beyond a standard anti-reflection coating, brands like Nikon, Essilor and Zeiss offer advanced glare-reducing lens treatments specifically designed to improve contrast and clarity in low-light conditions.

They can help with:
✔️ Halos around headlights
✔️ Blinding oncoming traffic
✔️ Low-contrast vision in the dark
✔️ Eye strain on night journeys

If you’re struggling, it’s absolutely worth exploring these options, especially as darker evenings draw in.

👓 At Whitby & Co, our opticians can advise on the right lens technology for your eyes, lifestyle and prescription.

Did you know that eye exams do more than just check your vision? They can reveal early signs of conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol issues and even neurological changes.

Even if you don’t have these conditions, digital eye strain from long hours at screens can cause fatigue, blurred vision, headaches, and neck tension.

At Whitby & Co., we provide comprehensive eye exams, advice on managing screen strain and tailored lens solutions to keep your eyes healthy and comfortable.

“I can see fine, I don’t need an eye test.” It’s one of the most common myths we hear.

But the truth? Many serious eye conditions like glaucoma and macular degeneration develop without any symptoms until it’s too late. Regular eye exams are about far more than just vision correction. They’re one of the best ways to protect your long-term eye
health.

📅 Book your routine eye test with us today.
