As spring break here, your patients might be planning road trips across the state or country. These trips can be safer with Shamir Driver Intelligence™.
Our innovative products significantly reduce distractions and vision noise like glare and reflections. When drivers have fewer visibility issues, they’re safer on the road.
By using Shamir lenses, your patients reduce the chances of a fun vacation turning tragic because of an accident. With Driver Intelligence™, they have more confidence on the road and improved reaction time. This means they’re better able to avoid serious collisions.
Given that decreased visibility is the main contributor to the high number of nighttime traffic fatalities, clarity of vision is essential at night. Fatal crashes peak on Saturday nights, as drivers have compromised depth perception, color recognition, and peripheral vision.
A simple solution like Driver Intelligence™ by Shamir can make driving safer and more widely accessible. These products work in all driving conditions — not just on those long winter nights with inclement weather.
Long Road Trips Offer Vision Challenges at Day and Night
Driving requires acute attention at all times, but eye fatigue and cognitive load can reduce visibility. These add to the specific hazards of daytime driving — the glare of a bright sun can impede your ability to see objects both near and far.
Glare can also be a distraction, meaning the eyes aren’t focused on the road in the few seconds it takes to have a collision.
Nighttime hazards are particularly acute. Drivers have trouble seeing because of light halos, starbursts, and ghosting. These can all reduce driving confidence. When driving at night, your patients risk an accident because of several factors:
• Night myopia
• Streetlight glare
• Decreased contrast sensitivity
• Decreased visual acuity
As your patients enjoy fun in the sun during a spring break road trip, they might also feel a bit more relaxed than normal. This laid-back attitude toward driving along with compromised vision can drastically increase accident risk.
