The DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) in the UK does not specifically classify night blindness as a standalone condition. However, if a driver's night blindness affects their ability to drive safely, they are required to inform the DVLA. Depending on the severity of the condition, the DVLA may restrict driving privileges or require a medical assessment to determine fitness to drive. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding driving safety.
