cheap pair of $5 KD's in yellow. Works well and enhances night vision.

Yellow on unlit highways but prefer clear in heavy traffic or lit roadways.

I wear yellow, impact resistant goggles over my glasses that are designed for low light conditions. They make a huge difference in visibility. I would tell you who makes them but they do not carry the yellow ones anymore.
