When I had a sensitivity to light, I just stayed indoors as much as possible and had black out curtains over the windows. When I had to go to a Dr.'s appointment or something like that, I would cover my head as much as possible and someone else would drive.

I am just realizing though (now that I'm doing better), that wearing welding glasses could help people suffering from photosensitivity. xanadu00, your idea to tape together two pairs of sunglasses is what made me think of it.

Maybe we could make a PCS Survival Kit that Dr.'s could pass out to their patients, or that could be ordered online and a pair welding glasses and foam ear plugs could be included in it along with a print out of the TBI Guide?
