Rewrite datetime comparison conditions into sargeable. For example,
YEAR(col) <= val -> col <= YEAR_END(val)
YEAR(col) < val -> col < YEAR_START(val)
YEAR(col) >= val -> col >= YEAR_START(val)
YEAR(col) > val -> col > YEAR_END(val)
YEAR(col) = val -> col BETWEEN YEAR_START(val) AND YEAR_END(val)
Do the same with DATE(col), for example:
DATE(col) <= val -> col <= DAY_END(val)
After such a rewrite index lookup on column "col" can be employed
