 Information About Impaired Night Vision and Night Blindness
People with this problem are the most numerous of all the people with night vision impairments and are often in their 40's or 50's.
THE CAUSE of "impaired night vision" in these cases is, most often, variation in the "depth-of-focus" of each eye with exposure to bright or dim light - and the resulting closing or opening of the eye's iris.
Once it is determined that this is the problem, namely that there is sharp vision with pinpoint pupils and blurred vision with open or enlarged pupils (due to reduction in depth-of-focus caused by the larger pupils), corrective lenses can be tried.
