I have no cataracts in my eye. is it possible to reduce glare?

Maybe: Correctly fitted, polarized sunglasses usually in amber or green are best for reducing glare. Sometimes, dry eyes can induce glare and this can be remedied with artifical tears. See your ophthalmologist for advice.

Glare coating: Glasses with special glare coating work really well, but these glasses tend to scratch easily. Make sure that dry eye syndrome is being treated.
