Glare Thresholds

Glare Thresholds is a psychophysical metric in visual science that denotes the minimum level of luminance or contrast at which a light source or surface begins to cause visual discomfort or impairment, distinguishing it from general brightness perception by specifically quantifying the onset of adverse visual effects due to excessive light exposure.
