thanks march
the glare when wearing glasess is horrible, i cant see when that happens and it really sends me off balance and in the past triggered panic attacks, but then without the glasses the sunlight is too much for me and i still feel ill and have to close my eyes , its a no win situation for me.
i didnt know the rnib did lamos i will look into that thanks.

Hmm. There is a type of sunglasses designed to be worn over prescription glasses that wraps all around the field of vision and they come in different colors. I am not saying they would work for everybody, and I'm not saying that they might work for somebody. I just know these glasses exist because my mom wore them. Now if I could just think where she bought them from. I liked them, but they were too heavy for me along with my heavy glasses. I've had eye surgery since then and now wear much lighter glasses, so I could try those sunglasses again.

hey if they can transplant the scared bit of my brain id be first inline.

Dr. Temple Grandin's, Animals in Translation, discusses this stuff really well. It seems that what you are describing is experiencing stimuli in a fragmented way. You see something that frightens or alarms you, that's all you focus on. NTs have really effective filters that toss away "unimportant" information. They can actually miss important stuff because they aren't "expecting it".
