I think there is a range of height that the light could be mounted. Higher might cut down having you eye catching the glare of looking directly at the light bulbs.

I would consider installing a second light. If you are going to have a vent fan fixture, you might want to get one that has a light and a night light which could come in handy for you. This is the one I installed recently. It's pretty quiet when the fan is running.

Here is a link that might be useful: Hunter vent/light

What does the fixture look like? If it is a triple sconce with 3 separate glass shades pointing down then it probably should go a bit higher.

It is a bath bar as pictured--thanks

Positioning looks right.

That looks like a nice fixture. What's the make and model?
