Was it photophobia ? That means an aversion to light, and I get it too in varying degrees. Two nights ago I had my house lights on dim, and I still needed to wear my sunglasses indoors.

I wear my sunglasses INSIDE. even tho I am legally blind and a lot of folks say "why the glasses?" I wear them 99% of the time. My optic nerve is just so sensitive. Photophobia is a bear!

Actually I do believe it was 'photo-phobia'. thanks all

I wear my sunglasses at night...... and all day long, inside and out!

I am looking forward to Spring. Less reflective snow, hopefully more overcast days.

I get giddy when I see 'overcast' for the forecast now. Anyone else with me?
