Well I read this old article. what happens as soon as I strike an arc I go instantly blind, I can not see what I am doing, can not see puddle or where I am going with weld, Denny's cataract statement and seeing to drive at night got me to thinking.
so I when to my truck where I keep my night driving lens, yellow lens, clip on, so I can see when driving at night. Well I used my clip on night lens on my reading glasses and found I was able to see what I was doing , not a great welder but was able to weld flex pipe on wife's 2006 exhaust, I could see puddle and hold a straight line around exhaust pipe, Might want to give it a try worked for me. Was nice not to be welding all over the place for a change, Jbennett
