Will yellow glasses stop me being blinded ?



In the winter I commute along a canal path, the lights from the other cyclists are blinding at times.



Will yellow glasses stop this, it's too dark for normal sunglasses?

          No. What blinds you is the relative brightness of the bike lights and the fact that unlike legal car lights, many of them are pointing straight at your face.



          The yellow lenses are designed to increase contrast in daylight. They work by blocking blue light, which is scattered so that it comes from all directions and makes shadows less visible.
