I find the yellow over glasses useful in certain light. My vision is very enhanced at the blue/low UV end of the spectrum because of eye surgeries.
First, heavy rain in bright daylight conditions. Yes, this can be a thing on showery days. The yellow lenses allow me to see the road markings more easily.
Second, at dusk. Somehow, I get better contrast in half light conditions.
Third (and this one is weird), at night on roads with good street lighting. Totally counterintuitive to most, I'm sure, but let me explain what I see. The yellow lenses make ALL the light on the road and signs cast by headlights and street look much the same in terms of color. I find this a great improvement, my eyes/visual perception prefer the even color without patches of vastly different light in my vision.
Now, on roads with no street lights, I cannot say I see any improvement. Sure, the yellow takes the sting out of oncoming LED and HID headlights, properly or badly adjusted. trouble is I feel my forward view is compromised.
As for my perceptions not lining up with science, if all their subjects had eyes with their natural lenses intact, then they were not going to get the same answers as they would with me.
