Light Sensitivity Assessment

Clearer vision is still possible
Bright light feels overwhelming
Glare makes it hard to read or drive
Your eyes feel uncomfortable even with the correct prescription
If you have experienced light sensitivity after cataract surgery, LASIK, retinal or optic nerve conditions, or if glare and visual discomfort affect your daily life, this assessment is designed for you.
Light sensitivity is not simply about sharpness. It often reflects how your eyes process contrast and light in real world conditions.

Who This Assessment Is For
This assessment may benefit patients who experience
• Glare or discomfort in bright environments
• Reduced contrast or washed out vision
• Visual stress after cataract or refractive surgery
• Retinal or optic nerve related vision changes
• Persistent discomfort despite updated prescriptions

Many patients only realise how sensitive their vision has become once these symptoms are properly assessed.
