Has anyone used "headlight glasses" for driving?

My (highly respectable) optician puts an snti glare coating on all my glasses lenses, usually on a reactolite lens.

If what they were doing was illegal, they crtainly would not do it.

I have a pair of anti glare glasses which i put on top of my normal ones. They were from a company called Coopers of Bishop Stortford, found in a leaflet inside my tv mag. They are perfect for bright sunlight and they do help with the headlight issue. But like OP i hardly ever drive at night now, especially in the winter months.

yellow tinted sunglasses are not legal for driving. I have never found any efficient glasses to stop headlight glare. I simply stopped night-time driving when it became too stressful

I keep seeing these pop up on my Facebook feed but I don't know if they

1. Actually work
Or
2. Are legal, as they look like sunglasses

Just wondering if anyone here can offer any opinions/reviews.
