No. Night Vision equipment uses infra-red (IR) light, wavelengths of light longer (lower frequency) than visible light. Infra="below", red, or light below red light in the spectrum.

UV stands for ultra (above)-violet, light that is above the violet light spectrum, so higher frequency=shorter wavelength.

What are the effects of astigmatism on night vision?

Astigmatism can cause blurry or distorted vision, especially at night or in low light conditions. This is because the irregular shape of the cornea or lens in astigmatism prevents light from focusing properly on the retina, leading to difficulties seeing clearly in dim lighting. Additionally, people with astigmatism may experience increased sensitivity to glare and halos around lights at night.


Kestrels see in ultraviolet UV light how does this help them hunt?

I believe that the field mouse or vole, or whatever the kestrel hunts marks concentric rings around its territory with urine. The mouse/voles urine comes up quite bright on the UV spectrum, so the kestrel often hovers where it can see these bright rings and keeps an eye out for the mouses/voles activity within the ring.
