Weird Eye Sensitivity
Has anyone else found their eyes to have heightened sensitivity to light? I've always been sensitive in that walking into sunlight without sunglasses would trigger headaches and such, but that has lessened quite a bit since I've added coconut oil into my diet regularly.
However, I'm finding that brief moments of bright light (like a glare off a car hood on a bright sunny day, looking accidentally right at a bright bulb, or a camera flash, etc.) are triggering long interference in my vision. You know the odd tracts you get in your vision when someone pops a flash right in your eyes?
It is very much like that. But whereas that usually fades in a minute or two, this goes on for five minutes or longer, slowly fading. It is primarily in my right eye, and it's only been going on a week at most, maybe three times I can think of. I have my annual eye check on the 21st, so I'll definitely have them look at things (they always do, because I had Lasik several years ago, so they have to check deeply for the "warranty" and all). But I'm concerned about that, too, because they will dilate my eyes, and yes, I'm having my guy drive me, but my vision is acting this wacky without dilation, so???
There is no time of day or food link (early morning, late evening, and mid-day)...
And it's weird, too, that if I deliberately look and focus in that area, for example, right now, it is in my right outer/lower edge. If I look straight ahead, thing tingle/wave/static feel of things is pronounced, but if I look down and to the right, out of the "corner" of my eyes, the effect stops almost completely.
Does anyone have any ideas? No other stuff accompanies it that I've recognized, and it isn't like black or "tears" or blurred vision, and it isn't an effect I've noticed much, but... I'm concerned, even when common sense is telling me I'm being silly about worrying. Living with a man who is fully blind in one eye, as well as having a father whose retina partially detached, makes me aware of how keenly life can change with vision issues.
