Thank you Jake, no i didnt mention swelling ,just inflammation of eye, due to cataract surgery, and yes dry eyes. Your right, people do not know the seriousness about dry eyes. MY husband doesnt even know what or why he got it! go figure, he's been in the sun his
whole life!. Even I know, from surfing and fishing. He is getting second opinion. We live on the beach in florida, so you know how the sun is here. If the second opinion does not work out, next step will probably be Baskin Palmer Institute in West Palm bch or
Miami. I still believe its dry eye syndrome along with the new cataract to adjust to. He is running out of patients, i get it. I would be
also. I have done research on the institute in Miami. Alot of people have suggested it. Thanxs, for writing in! mas

Hello @sunny1971, Greetings from another light sensitive eye person. SFN (small fiber neuropathy) creates heightened sun sensitivity. I lived on top of a mountain and generally above the cloud bank in addition to the frequent total sun days with low humidity. My Opthamologist had me try different sun glass lenses until we found one that blocks more sunlight.
They worked well and I am on my 4th pair. One, two, and three were left in a restaurant or office somewhere. I have #4 now and wonder if I can keep from losing them one more time. What has also helped is moving to a state with higher humidity.
May you be content and free of discomfort.
Chris
