Better vision behind the wheel, day or night.
Have you ever found yourself squinting against oncoming headlights, struggling with glare on a rainy road, or feeling less confident driving after dark? You’re not alone!
With daylight saving time coming to an end, many of us will soon be driving home in the dark. Between bright headlights, reflections, and changing road conditions, driving can become more challenging than we realize.
At Performance Eyecare, we’re always looking for ways to improve our patients’ vision beyond the exam room. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Shamir Driver Intelligence™ lenses, advanced eyeglass lenses designed specifically for the visual demands of driving.
Not All Driving Conditions Are the Same
Think about how different driving feels on a bright, sunny afternoon compared to a dark, rainy evening. Your eyes are constantly adjusting to changing light, movement, and distances. Shamir Driver Intelligence offers two lens options designed to help with these different challenges.
Shamir Driver Intelligence Day
Designed for daytime driving, these lenses help reduce glare from bright sunlight and reflections while providing clear, comfortable vision. They also provide UV protection and polarization and can double as everyday prescription sunglasses.
Shamir Driver Intelligence Night
If you’ve noticed that headlights seem brighter or nighttime driving isn’t as comfortable as it used to be, these lenses may be worth exploring.
They’re designed to reduce distracting glare, improve contrast, enhance clarity, and help you see more clearly in low-light and dark conditions.
More Than Just Glare Reduction
What makes these lenses different from regular glasses? They’re designed around how we actually use our eyes while driving. From checking your mirrors to glancing at your dashboard and watching the road ahead, your eyes are constantly shifting focus.
Shamir Driver Intelligence lenses provide wider, clearer viewing areas to help make those transitions more comfortable, with less need to move your head. The nighttime design even accounts for changes in how some people’s eyes focus in dim lighting.
And whether you wear single vision or progressive lenses, there are options available to fit your needs.
Inspired by Formula One Racing
Here’s something pretty interesting!
Shamir developed this technology using insights from professional drivers associated with the BWT Alpine Formula One™ Team.
Professional racing drivers must constantly process changing visual information, including speed, distance, movement, and lighting conditions. Shamir used insights from their driving experiences, along with research involving everyday drivers, to develop lenses focused on the visual challenges we face behind the wheel.
You don’t have to drive a race car to appreciate clearer, more comfortable vision!

Are Driving Lenses Right for You?
Not everyone needs specialized driving lenses. But if you spend a lot of time behind the wheel, struggle with glare, or find nighttime driving more difficult than it used to be, they may be worth considering.
At Performance Eyecare, we believe the best lenses are the ones that fit your individual vision needs and lifestyle.
Our doctors and optical teams can help you explore your options and determine whether Shamir Driver Intelligence lenses are right for you.
Because seeing clearly shouldn’t stop when the sun goes down.
