this most likely is not going to help...
here is how i solve my light sensitivity:
i don't drive.
when i get in the car:
i wear regular glasses,
then on top, i wear Larry David's dad sunglasses.
i have THREE of those roll up sunglasses you get when you get your eyes dialated.
if that is not enough, i have a sleep mask that you would wear like on an airplane.
if more protection is needed, have a a ski make i pull over the sleep mask.
most likely that did not help you or answer your question.
lo siento...
