Poor vision while driving at night. getting worse as i age?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Driving vision often gets worse as we age for several reasons. One is increasing cataract causing blurred vision and increased glare with headlights. Another is that pupil size tends to decrease as we age, letting less light in.
