Default Eye fatigue - does anyone get this?

My eyes get fatigued and it feels like when (before the accident) I'd be in a dark restaurant or room staring at one person for a long time and colors begin to darken, my vision would feel grainy, and I'd have to adjust or get to a brighter room to give my eyes a break. It also used to happen when a person was on stage giving a talk and the audience is in the dark.

Now, this type of thing happens to my eyes when I'm fatigued/overstimulated/having a bad day and its constant, no shaking off. I need to be in bright places for it to subside. It's an annoying symptom, but a reliable sign that I've overdone it somehow.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

In July 2013 ran into a metal bar at a playground, remained conscious. CT normal. Headache subsided after a week. In August woke with thunderclap-type headache in right side of head, right eye was droopy. Ever since had electrical-type pulsating all over when falling asleep and during sleep. Strong muscle twitching occasionally. Chest pain in heart region, front left neck region, and left shoulder. Strong heartbeat noise in head and occasional weird noises in ears. Taking Gabapentin to control nighttime nerves. Other symptoms: anxiety attacks, goosebumps, fine motor coordination problems, sleep apnea, headaches/migraines, fatigue, unclear thinking.

Update as of Jan. 2015 - almost all symptoms gone except for some tinnitus. Taking good care of myself except sometimes when I overdo it.
