Anyone else has light sensitivity problem?

Question

I've noticed lately I can't tolerate the light anymore( sunlight, house lights if there to bright, fluorescent lights mostly all types) if I go out I need to wear shades and sometimes they don't help. sometimes late at night I can't stand to stare at my phone for a long period of time cause it starts bothering my eyes and my phone be at 0% brightness.. whenever that happens my anxiety starts acting up. anyone else had this happened to them?

Answer

I'm the same :( I saw an opthalmologist to make sure nothing was wrong with my optic nerve. For me it's apparently just a symptom of my chronic illness, and I just have to cope. Not fun, sorry you have to deal with it too 😥 #iwearmysunglassesatnight

Answer

I totally have light sensitivity in anxiety episodes (that are daily). Apparently your pupils dilate when you panic (to help you fight or flight) but in normal situations that causes a sensitive mess! Definitely go to the eye doctor (that’s where I started) and ask you GP, if all is clear, it may just be a natural response.

Answer

I have this from my Lyme disease

Answer

You probably need to see an eye doctor. I have light sensitivity from Lupus and eye issues.
