**Night Vision Problems: Causes and Modern Solutions**
Struggling to see clearly at night can significantly affect your quality of life, making activities like driving after dark uncomfortable or even unsafe. At Brian D Suttie Opticians, we understand how crucial it is to address these issues so you can enjoy a clearer, more confident view of the world, regardless of the time of day.
**Common Causes of Night Vision Difficulties**
Night vision problems can originate from various sources, such as cataracts, myopia, or retinal conditions. Ageing also plays a significant role; as we grow older, our pupils shrink and don’t dilate as well in low light, reducing the amount of light entering our eyes. Furthermore, the health of your cornea and optic nerve, along with the clarity of your eye’s lens, can all impact how well you see in darker environments.
**Modern Solutions at Brian D Suttie Opticians**
To diagnose and effectively treat night vision concerns, we utilise cutting-edge technology in our comprehensive eye examinations. Technologies like OCT Screening with the Revo NX130FC provide us with detailed images beneath the surface of your eyes, while the iCare EIDON enhances diagnostic accuracy through Confocal Scanning and TrueColor® Technology. These advanced tools help us detect and manage conditions that could be affecting your night vision much earlier than traditional methods.
If corrective lenses are needed, our independent status allows us to select from a broad range of manufacturers to find the spectacles or contact lenses that best meet your visual and lifestyle needs. For those experiencing night vision problems due to myopia, we offer specialised lenses like the innovative Stellest™ by Essilor, designed to slow myopia progression and improve night-time visibility.
