Night Driving

Many people wonder if cataract surgery will help improve their ability to drive at night. When compared to a control lens, patients with the AcrySof® IQ Aspheric IOL2:

  • Performed better in a simulated night-driving test under city and rural driving conditions such as glare and fog
  • Had a significant advantage in detecting and identifying pedestrians and warning signs in low-visibility conditions
  • Had improved functional vision, giving them more time to take appropriate action
  • Had an average increase of 130 feet in which to stop after identifying a warning sign (in a rural setting in fog conditions at 55mph)
