Retinal damage from long night driving

Sir,
I apologise to bother you time and again and can't express in words how much your write ups mean to me. My history is here :

Last evening I had to drive 4 hours in the night on highway and the light from incoming traffic , and glares from rear mirrors resulted in eye pain and headache. I have read that such light can damage retina.

Sir, please share your thoughts and if you think I should consult eye MD?

Thanks.

That will not hurt or damage your eyes if it would the whole world would have problems

Thank you sir, I was scared because I also need to drive back and given my retinal tear history not sure how to get over such OCD. You help so much and thanks a lot for the wonderful job you do here!! Hats off to you.
