How Melanoma Qualifies You for a Tint Exemption

Melanoma patients and survivors need to minimize all UV exposure, including through vehicle windows. Standard auto glass blocks some UV but not enough for high-risk individuals. A Delaware tint exemption allows darker tint for critical UV protection.

To qualify, you need to demonstrate that your Melanoma 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

With an approved medical exemption for Melanoma, you may be permitted to have darker window tint than these standard limits, providing the protection you need while staying legal.
