KF, I seem to be more sensitive to bright light this year. With a cataract operation this spring and another in a year it might be just the eyes. Driving at night I experience a significant amount of flare, particularly from the bright halogen headlights. I was DX.in with PD 1997 and have added medicines to alleviate various symptoms. As for "shut out the world". That would be very subjective. I come and go do everything I want to. If the persons observing are put off by my symptoms, that is their problem. I take the attitude that if we all hide than we will all be forgotten. I want everyone to understand as much as they can about the disease. My best opportunities to teach are people I meet and trade with every day.

I asked her if light is bothering her, she says it is not. On the other hand she seems to be more sensitive and asks for sunglasses when we are outside. 1. Has anybody had trouble with pulling the eyes shut? 2. Has anybody had problems with excessive light sensitivity, photophobia (due to the meds perhaps)? 3. Do people with PD want to shut out the world? Comments appreciated. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
