[luckyman]

Mine always have been the opposite - large as hell - pupils that is, (as in taken drugs - which I don't but as a kid got hell for it LOL), AND hyper sensitive, I am a bluey (by the way what are you???) I been told the colour is higely important by my folks (one has brown the other bright blue), and they absorb (correct if wrong, too much light) brown detracts or something??. They give me sore heads and extreme EXTREME sensitivity, alway have. Especially (let me guess) when it's snowy ans sunny?

I wear my shades ALL the time, folk think I am a poser (far from it) my eyes, I love them, but they kill me man! Lets find someone on here that can help hopefully!!!! Arrrrrrrgh...

Are you on drugs?

If not, see your optician.

[luckyman]

I have prescribed Green lenses for my eyes and its made such a big difference.

Or maybe you are vampire and you don't know it! Lol

Opticrom, 1 drop in your eyes, 4 times aday is good too if you get allergy eyes.

thanks 4 that lou but i dont think that condition is the problem....i can read a 500 page book in a day no problem and have no difficulty seeing long distance....but my eyes are allways sensitive to light and my pupils have never been big recently....

Have your eyes always been sensitive to light or is it a recent thing? Do you have any blurring or double vision? Have you had an eye test recently?

[luckyman]

no it has onl been this last 3mths....i have never had eye test,eyes have allways been 100%...thought it was the coffee!! but only drink 3 cups a day...so im puzzled

[mandimoo]

thats weird, you should go to the doc.

I have two friends who suffer from a condition called Keratoconus, which makes them sensitive to light. It usually causes some blurring or "ghosting" of vision as well though. Google it, see if the symptoms sound familiar. I would get an eye test if I were you.
