Hi Everyone,<br><br>Yesterday I went in to see
Helen Irlen where I get my color filter glasses and she
said to me that I need to modify how I wear my glasses
and pay more attention to my environment in regards
to light. Light is my enemy as my seizure disorder
is directlty related to light. <br><br>First, my
indoors glasses are not my main glasses, now my outdoor
glasses are my main as they do not seem to offer enought
protection for me from the light. <br><br>Second, I should
pay attention when I enter a room or an enviornment
and not sit directly in front of a ligth source. If
there are florescent lights to ask if they can be
turned off. <br><br>Third to wear a big floopy hat or
visors to further block out the light. She is right.
<br><br>I try to ignore some of the things that add to my
light sensitivity as a trade off to appear normal and
not call attention to me. However, I think I need to
try more in taking better care of myself as this is
priority. People will just need to understand.
