This is a classic case of shift work sleep disorder. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_work_sleep_disorder)
Do what you can to control lighting and temperature in your bedroom.
(I've worked night shift for nearly 8 years. It's taken me a long time to figure it all out. I feel your pain.)
You might try it this way, and then, if glare still is a bother get some block out shades or curtains that can be pulled as needed?

That is $35 for a 6 pack. They are actually quite good at blocking the light. They make them in several different weights too, so you can block more or less light.
I have huge bay windows in my new apartment. They're awesome during the day, but less so at night when I'm trying to sleep.
I need something to completely black them out, but that is also easily to raise. As this is a rental, I'd like to avoid having to drill holes.
I tried this thing, it does a great job blocking out the light at night, but is a huge pain in the morning. I found this, which has a string, but is not made to completely black out all night.
Does anyone know a workable solution for this problem?
I work nights and bought these. They are amazeballs. Also use them where the kids sleep. My toddler has not pulled them down yet. You have to manually fold them up and clip them, which with toddlers is a plus since there's no cool "whizz!!" action. http://www.amazon.com/Quick-Blackout-Pleated-Paper-Shade/dp/B000SDTEAG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1464542782&sr=8-2&keywords=blackout+shades
You should put these on your wishlist :)
I have these in my bedroom and they're amazing.

The only added element here are the blackout curtains I installed from Amazon. This suddenly popped up after a small opening (likely from the tape coming undone) in the blackout curtains.
