Agree! I use the yellow tinted lenses most all the time now, as it seems like I have an easier time on the mtn bike in the woods. But it does block some light when it starts getting dark and the clear lense helps. I find that I don't see quite as well in the dark either, and am more cautious now while driving my car at night. The hazards of old age!

BTW, they say as you get older that your memory is the second thing you lose...I can't remember what the first thing is.
