Was this article written by somebody with Brown eyes? If the evidence they quote is true then why is there no mention that in a night situation surely the less light absorbed by the Iris would be better? Not everything is glare at night, what happens when the oncoming car has passed? Plus being able to see well does not mean you are a better driver, at night or anytime.
I think the evidence would point to Brown eyes being better in the day, constant bright conditions, which would point to the areas on the planet where those conditions exist. Africa, South America etc. Whereas places that have less Sun seem to be populated with Blue, or lighter eye coloured people.

The word is blond when referring to the colour itself, but mostly spelt blonde when referring to an object, such as hair. Blonde is also the ‘female’ noun. Blond is the adjective.

Also, neighbour – in the English language (for hundreds of years), is spelt with a u, as with all words that end in ‘our’. This is because in pronunciation you accentuate the end of those types of words and elongate the word in speech, i.e.: annunciation of the word neighbour (US incorrect spelling being neighbor) is: naay-bore, not naybor. The same with colour, flavour, favour – you wouldn’t say grandur, you’d say grandeur, it’s just the same.

i have tested many of eyes in my line of work and usually the people who need glasses have blue eyes but last year 65% of people who need galsses had brown eyes. so i dont think there is a rashional expenation why brown eyes see better in the sun than blue eyes even though i have blue eyes and i can see well in the sun.
