This is a condition of the eye which cannot see well at long distances in low illumination, such as driving at night. It's a myopic condition induced from complex optical factors as a result of dilatation of the pupil and reaction in the focusing mechanism of the eye. This problem can be alleviated by appropriately increased the correcting power to be used in the low illumination.
