Oneid1hrn, your comments certainly do lift my spirits and give me hope! No, I do not see a speach pathologist. I see my doc next week and will ask if she will refer me. The fact that it helped you gives me a lot of hope. I will look into various sunglasses with different shades as you suggest.
Aireyden, I too rest with an eye mask, but maybe I let things get too bad before I do this. I'll try to take more rests and see if that helps. The main causes for me is TV, computer and shopping.
Thanks a bunch!
