Halos around lights are especially noticeable at night or in low light. Persistent or increasing halos can be a good reason to have your eyes examined.
Halos appear when light is scattered on its way through the eye rather than being focused cleanly on the retina. That scattering can come from the tear film, the cornea or the lens:
An examination is useful if the halos are new, if they are getting worse, or if they make night driving uncomfortable or unsafe.
We assess your prescription, your cornea, your tear film and your natural lens to find where the light is being scattered, then discuss the options that suit the cause.
