Try the brightness control knob(not joking) it's near the switch for the lights. I seem to recall this can dim some of the instrument cluster lights, and may some of the switch gear.....
Here I posted a video with a description that explains what your solution might be
If this doesn't help you I don't know what would
the problem might be with your eyes since each person sees differently and have different sensitivity to light.
like for myself, I discovered a few months ago that I don't see as well in the dark or at night and especially with long/far distances
You can increase/ decrease the brightness of the lights in the buttons and the instrument cluster by rolling/turning the button that's next to the headlight switch up or down and NOT by pushing it in which might break it and make it get jammed.
Sometimes you get your car from the dealership with the lights dimmed or not turned all the way up
Here are pics of all of my buttons with the lights turned on to the highest
As you can see everything is very bright and yours should be the same with the lights turned on to the highest
The knob near the headlight switch only controls the center dash lights. I could swear my center console switches were brighter when I first got the car. Now they are sort of a faded orange color.
Maybe it's different for different countries, builds. I have ILS, HUD and ambient lighting- by using the scroll knob near the light control switch I can brighten and dim the switch gear lights on the steering wheel, window controls, seating controls and centre console, it's a noticeable difference.
