Can You Get a Tint Exemption for Eczema in Delaware?
Eczema (atopic dermatitis) causes inflamed, itchy skin that can be worsened by sun exposure and heat. For patients with sun-triggered eczema, window tint provides necessary protection.
Eczema Symptoms That Qualify
The following symptoms of Eczema are relevant to qualifying for a window tint medical exemption in Delaware:
- Dry, itchy, inflamed skin
- Red or brownish-gray patches
- Skin that cracks and weeps
- Flare-ups from heat and sweating
- Sun-triggered skin irritation
How Eczema Qualifies You for a Tint Exemption
Heat and UV exposure through car windows can trigger eczema flares. Darker window tint reduces heat and UV transmission, helping manage the condition. Delaware accepts documented eczema as a qualifying condition.
To qualify, you need to demonstrate that your Eczema makes it medically necessary for you to have darker window tint than what Delaware law normally allows. Our licensed physicians review your existing documentation against state requirements — we do not diagnose. You must already have records from a primary care physician or eye care specialist confirming your condition.

Current Delaware Tint Laws
Without a medical exemption, Delaware law limits window tint to 70% VLT VLT on front side windows and Any darkness VLT on back side windows. Violations carry fines starting at $57.50 fine.
With an approved medical exemption for Eczema, you may be permitted to have darker window tint than these standard limits, providing the protection you need while staying legal.
