## Caption

👁️ This is roughly what nighttime driving can look like for drivers with astigmatism, with bright headlights, taillights and streetlights appearing as glare, halos or star-like streaks.
⠀
Astigmatism occurs when the cornea or lens has an irregular curvature, preventing incoming light from focusing cleanly at a single point.
⠀
The effect can become especially noticeable behind the wheel after dark, when intense points of light contrast against an otherwise dark environment.
⠀
For some drivers, those halos can resemble comet-like streaks radiating away from headlights and other light sources.
⠀
Rain can make the experience even more visually demanding as reflections from headlights, brake lights and streetlights spread across wet pavement and glass.
⠀
An updated glasses or contact-lens prescription can help correct astigmatism, and persistent night-driving vision problems are worth discussing with an eye-care professional.
⠀
Does nighttime traffic look anything like this through your windshield?

What are your thoughts? 🤔💭
