Wear Sunglasses

Now it might just sound like a plain-jane vanilla suggestion, but it indeed is an important one. In the summer, when the sun is harsh, you have to deal with a lot of glare from all sorts of shiny surfaces. Depending on the time of the day, it could be even from the car ahead of you, the guard rails, or even your own windscreen. Sunglasses are also an effective solution to deal with the mirage effect on the road, and they also reduce the stress on your eyes.

Clean Windshield

Another suggestion, shared by NHAI, is to keep your windshield clean. Yes, it indeed is helpful. As the windshield accumulates dirt or water drop marks, they tend to reflect or refract sun rays, and at times, it could be directly onto your face. Therefore, keeping the windshield clean can help you reduce sunglasses significantly.

Use Sun Visors

At the time of dusk or dawn, the sun is roughly in your line of vision, making it tough to see ahead. In such a case, sun visors provided in the car come in handy. They block the direct sunlight to a great extent, thereby reducing the summer glare.
