Orange is actually better for your eyes when you're driving at night. It blends in with the red brake lights in front of you, and so doesn't shock your eyes that bad.

What are you an optometrist (that means eye doctor)?

Since you don't know what the hell you're talking about, here are some facts:
What is the best light that will provide your eyes, and brain with the best light for reading? The answer is a dim white light. Look inside any of the new jets, and you will find that the lighting is white. Military cockpits specify NVIS (Night Vision Imaging System) White. NVIS White appears to have a green tint, but it is a full spectrum light.

The best light choice is NVIS White, followed by soft white, for a light that will protect your central night vision and provide full spectrum light. Green and Blue will protect central night vision as well, but blues and greens will disappear with this color of light - something for a pilot to consider prior to use. Red is also available, which will protect peripheral night vision, but not central vision as well as the soft white, blue and green. Red's on charts will also not be visible with red light, another consideration for the pilot to consider when making a color choice.

So no, orange is NOT "better for your eyes" while driving at night. If all you want to do is run up your post count, at least don't do it with b.s.
