Effect of correlated color temperature, Tcp, on the discomfort glare evaluation for LED street lights was investigated. Subjective evaluation experiment was conducted using 7 different Tcp street lights in a large indoor facility for the peripheral and central viewing conditions. Results showed that the change of Tcp within the range employed in this study does not affect on the discomfort glare evaluation. Illuminance at the observer's eye, E_v, is a good measure for discomfort glare evaluation, probably because the difference of luminaire uniformity does not markedly vary among the test lights in this study. Luminance based photometric quantities also showed good correlation with the discomfort glare evaluation, while further investigation is needed to obtain more precise values.
