   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunglasses

   When driving a vehicle, particularly at high speed, dazzling glare caused by a low Sun, or by lights reflecting off snow, puddles, other vehicles, or even the front of the vehicle, can be lethal.

3. Glare (vision) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glare_(vision)

   Disability glare impairs the vision of objects without necessarily causing discomfort. [4] This could arise for instance when driving westward at sunset.

This type of mirror is made of a piece of glass that is wedge-shaped in cross-section ...

5. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

   For the simplified scenario of visible light travelling from air (n 0 ≈ 1.0) into common glass (n S ≈ 1.5), the value of R is 0.04, or 4%, on a single reflection. So at most 96% of the light (T = 1 − R = 0.96) actually enters the glass, and the rest is reflected from the surface. The amount of light reflected is known as the reflection loss.

6. Optical coating - Wikipedia

   Comparison of uncoated glasses (top) and glasses with an anti-reflective coating (bottom). Antireflection coatings are used to reduce reflection from surfaces.
