I wear specs and I worse is I have astigmatism. So, can't live without specs. I also drive a lot but find driving in night pretty painful due to the glasses and glares from the headlights of oncoming cars. As my car is a few years old the windshield is not in pristine condition - that adds to the misery :( .

Once I tried the polarized sunglasses and found it very effective in reducing the glares. But obviously can't use them daily as they are without powers. I found the following clip-on type sunglasses which can be fixed over the glasses.

Amazon.com: Polarized Clip on Flip up Plastic Sunglasses, Large Tru Rectangle, 60mm or 2-23/64" Wide X 38mm or 1.50" High (128mm or 5" Wide), Polarized Grey Lenses: Shoes

Has anybody used this type of clip-on sunglasses (I know they look old styled!!) ? How comfortable are they? Also, are they available in India? Any kind of feedback is appreciated before I place the order on Amazon.
 
I have not used these clip on ones, but my aviators have power in them.. They are some green colored (but quite light shade) but are not polarised.

And I must say that it helps me a lot it reducing glares at night. However, I noticed that it even caused less light of my headlight, but that was marginal.

Though I dont wear them in night in city as people rather think i am doing show off :P
 
I have sunglasses with powers too. But in night they are not advisable as they will compromise visibility. Also, polarized glasses do wonders with glares and reflections.
