I would suggest Bilberry Tincture before you drive and also sublingual B12...
Also, Pycnogenol may help...
also, Dr. Sahelian has a vision formula that appears to be effective.... Do a google search of all these for more info... Bilberry was used by WW2 pilots before night raids to better locate their targets..

Jane, night vision blindness is a classic Vit-A deficiency. People at high risk for this deficiency are diabetics and hypothyroid, because many in this group cannot properly convert Beta-carotene to Vit-A (which is very much needed for eye health). If you are accustomed to sunbathing or tanning, this can deplete Vit-A.Replied by Citygirl27 (Richardson, Tx, Usa) on 10/10/2012
What the others said, plus take additional vitamin A and lutein. Pumpkin is also very high in beta carotene (i. E. One pumpkin pie slice has 270% DV of vitamin A by way of beta carotene), go for your favorite orange vegetables any way you can. Just keep sugars to a minimum and go for other seasonings instead. Sugar degrades your eyesight among other things.Replied by Lisa (Thousand Oaks, Ca, Usa) on 10/12/2012
Hi Jane, I would suggest goji berries. My husband really feels a difference from a tonic combination of goji and schizandra. These are Chinese fruits considered highly beneficial in Chinese herbalism. Here is an excerpt regarding goji and eyes:
But one chemical in particular has attracted the attention of the scientific world and appears to directly confirm Goji's benefit for the eyes and to vision.
"The orange "pigment" in Goji is actually a very powerful antioxidant called zeaxanthin (zee-uh-ZAN-thin) that is easily absorbed in the digestive tract after consuming Goji berries and is preferentially absorbed by the retina of the eyes. This powerful antioxidant actually coats the lining of our eyes and keeps our eyes youthful. This ability of Goji has been known in Asia for over a thousand years, but has just recently been verified by a Harvard University study and other researchers. Lutein, a related compound is also utilized by the retina of the eye, but research now indicates that zeaxanthin is probably more important and more easily efficiently utilized by themacula, a tiny area of the retina that allows clear central vision such as that needed to read or drive. Zeaxanthin protects the macula, the visual center of the retina, from intense high-energy, blue-wave light in the same way that "blue blocker" sunglasses protect the eyes. Amazingly, zeaxanthin also helps the eye repair itself."
Hope this info is helpful. Lisa

Lisa, did your husband see any difference in the eye floaters from the goji?Replied by Lisa (Thousand Oaks, Ca, Usa) on 10/13/2012
Hi Mmsg, Yes, the goji and schizandra drops have made a very big difference in his eyes in many ways. He has always been bothered with very dry, irritable eyes, continual fluctuation of blurred vision even with his glasses and floaters all the time. He literally saw a change in his eyes the first day he started with this remedy. Since then, he has recommended it to several people and they too have noticed a difference. My formula has goji in it as well but, I don't have eye issues really. I do have to say after reading about goji, I'm about ready to get this one:

I put this link up because it has a great explanation of what goji is good for. I found it fascinating! Hope you find this info interesting. Lisa
