@ArcaneSlime@Ulrich They are not pointed directly at your eyes, it would be much worse. But they are significantly brighter than previous headlight technologies, and often have smaller reflectors, or lenses, resulting in a smaller (and even brighter) apparent light source. This concentrated apparent source of light more easily causes glare on windshields, glasses or simply our eyes transparents parts. It is awful and very poor design. Not mentionning blue/cold light scatters MUCH more anyway.
@ArcaneSlime@Ulrich (Blue light scattering in everything is why the sky is blue)
Also, the worst part imho (thankfully less common) is the use of random LED drop-ins in old housings absolutely not made for their light source shape, position or brightness, scattering light in every direction, without even throwing light farther than stock halogen bulbs.

@Ulrich
I’ll just reply to both of you at once: Well no matter what it is, the IRL effect is light pointing directly in my eyes.
@ArcaneSlime Well, everything you see is light directly pointing in your eyes.
…aight that’s fair lmao
