Your Eyes and Driving

Did you know, that as you get older your eyes need more light to see clearly?  According to this article, your eyes at age 60 need about three times as much light to see as when you're 20.  As you get older, your pupils become smaller and need much more light in order to make things out.  You may also have additional vision problems making another obstacle when you're behind the wheel.  If you are experiencing any difficulty seeing clearly, please go to your eye doctor and get a prescription/treatment that is right for you.  You never know, it just may save your life the next time you drive.
