Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Sat, November 8, 2003 - 6:32 PMI've always worn sunglasses - my eyes cannot stand even overcast days, they are so sensitive. Without sunglasses, I'm nearly blind on bright days. And I tend to keep my home dim as well (I also happen to have excellent night vision).

Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Sun, November 16, 2003 - 6:26 PMI rarely wear sunglasses. The clip-ons for my glasses broke and I haven't replaced them.
I do sneeze everytime I go out into the bright sun. -

Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Thu, February 19, 2004 - 6:17 AMFunny you mentioned sneezing, so I do, generally twice. I know a guy who is blond/blue. He sneezes continuously unless he wears sunglasses.
I used to wear sunglasses, but I decided to let my eye adjust to natural lighting. However, I tend to use candle light instead of electricy for house lighting. -

Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Fri, February 20, 2004 - 1:46 AMWow! Me too (not continuously...twice)! I feel that the human body is an extremely adaptable organism...I do still wear sunglasses when confronted with direct sun light, but since I sleep in the day, only occasionaly. But big stores and malls are a challenge. No bulbs above 60 watts in my house.

Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Thu, December 18, 2003 - 11:39 PMAccording to AllAboutVision.com, ". . . people with lighter-colored eyes. . . are more likely to notice sensitivity to light and glare." (www.allaboutvision.com/condit...ve.htm)
The article adds that "Some medications may cause light sensitivity as a side effect, including belladonna, furosemide, quinine, tetracycline and doxycycline." Quinine is found in tonic water, which seems to suggest that drinking a bunch of gin-and-tonic can induce light-sensitivity. -

Mon, February 16, 2004 - 3:04 PMI have heard that people with light eyes are also more sensitive to clutter and mess. I don't know about you, but I can't stand to see clutter. It irritates the hell out of me. -

most people I know that have blue eyes have very cluttered houses the dark eyed people i know tend to have clean uncluttered houses! I think it all depends to what your used to living in a mess or clean slate. people don't see things diffriently because there eye colour is different!

Re: light eyes vs. dark eyes
Wed, November 21, 2007 - 2:34 AMIt's true. Light eyes are more sensitive to light. That's why Africans have darker eyes than Scandinavians.
