Depends on what this glare is relating to. Lets say you are watching T.V. and mom says, this glare is killing me! She is referring to some light source reflecting off the glass on the screen of the T.V. which is affecting her ability to see whats happening on her favorite show. I'm sure anyone who has watched T.V. with the lights on or with a window open has experienced this glare. Glare can also occur when taking pictures with the camera's flash on. When the flash hits some type of reflective surface, the lens picks up the light from the flash reflecting off this surface. This creates a spot of light on the photo, called a glare. Virtually all glare will refer to light reflecting off a surface, and most times is an unwanted phenomenon. Glare however also could refer to a light source "glaring" into your eyes, making it difficult to see. This most often happens on a bright day. Glare MAY ALSO refer to a look given by someone, usually with some type of anger or disgust or other negative emotion as an origin. This look can include but may not be limited to a snarl or an evil eye.
