My desk in Seattle faces a window and the afternoon glare is killing my eyes

Last month I moved my home office to a room with a west-facing window, and by 3 PM the sun is directly on my screen. I tried a basic pull-down shade, but it just makes the room feel like a cave. Has anyone found a good middle ground, like a specific type of blind or film, that cuts glare without making everything too dark?

Diffuses the light" - does it still give you a view?

Consider getting a sheer vertical blind. It diffuses the light enough to kill the glare but still lets you see outside. It's the only thing that worked for my south facing window.
