Dear light-sensitive people, can you please share experiences with or recommendations for FL-41 glasses?

I am looking for something that will help me navigate the harsh lights at my work place. I do have a rather small skull, so I often have to look long and hard for sunnies that don't slide off my nose. Hence, I'm looking for FL-41 glasses that have a relatively small fit. Do you have any recommendations?

Do you have any other advice that you can share? Thanks!

Hmm 🤔 last time we were here, it was raining like mad and still dark when we headed home. I did bring my clip-over, and my sunglasses, but they're both in the car. So of course now it does get rather light as we walk here...
Hope my eyes won't be too bothered, as I will have to drive us home in a bit. I'll have my clip then but I could also have a headache...
Light sensitivity is hard at times... (well, at times when there is light, which people like to have and I'll be like... That's a bit too much for me).

I wish it was easier to explain how just normal daylight, even at the start of the day, can feel overwhelming and a trigger for a bad headache. 😔

To all those devs that don’t add support dark mode in your applications.

Your mom’s a ho.

The #tremor has been my fave symptom cuz; Kate Hepburn is classy, all the best songs (Shake It Up, Shake it Up Baby, OOOoooOhh Shake) at times feels like riding a train to experience not unpleasant, and its something people can see unlike a jacked nervous system or #LightSensitivity #SensoryIssues #functionalNeurologicDisorder #FND #neurodivergent #disability

If you have sensitivity to bright lights, it's definitely worth investing in dimmable lightbulbs for your place. I usually have my lights on no higher than 50% brightness, enough to see by but not to induce a headache, and only turn them up for working on detailed art/crafts. Dimmable lights are a game changer. #ActuallyAutistic #SensoryIssues #LightSensitivity

straight up cried - still very upset when I found out incandescent light bulbs are illegal and now contraband and I have none. What the ableist classist tax the poor fuckity fuck america? Already disabled folks are shamed about using straws now we can sit in the dark too or pony up $20 for what feels like a blue interior floodlight #DrinkingStraws #lightbulbs #migraine #SensoryIssues #LightSensitivity #WhyICriedYesterday #ShakesFistAtSky

I really love the "Extra dim" accessibility feature, which helps a lot for my light sensitivity. However, I already often use it even during during the day (with shut window blinds), so even the extra dimmest level is sometimes too bright in the night. Is there a (non-root) way to make the display even dimmer than that? (Without turning it off, obviously.)

For #Firefox (more precisely: Mull Browser on #FDroid), there's the Dark Reader add-on. It does it's job very well (when I set the contrast to highest, the background is completely black / turned off AMOLED); so at least I have an option for web browsing.

@feditips @IceCubesApp @gdawirs it could be, but I don’t know if #accessibility #settings confound it or what, but there’s more:

What’s with the #vanilla #emoji window and the #flashy #icon/emoji #light #ripples? You’d think that #LightSensitivity or #MotionSensitivity weren’t things anyone would care about

#Frankly, even with the #app’s #developer on #hiatus, #Metatext still out-shines #IceCubes enough to keep my preference

Yesterday (Day 8 of COVID) my eyes were fine again - no problemo! Today, about an hour after waking up, I had to close all the blinds and come off screens again. Le sigh.

@theautisticcoach

I'm over sensitive to most light.

I always though it was something awry with the muscles in my eyes, but maybe it is another #AuctuallyAutistic trait in me.
