What Causes Sensitivity To Light?
Is there a causal connection between one who has low blood pressure (say 100 over 65) and sensitivity to light? My wife dresses in the dark during the mornings because light is "too much" for her to take, "an assault..." as she puts it. She thinks it may be due to her relatively low blood pressure. True?

Hello
It seems from the history that your wife is having sensitivity to light and she is having low blood pressure.
Low blood pressure is not related to sensitivity.
Sensitivity to light is caused by corneal ulcers, corneal abrasions and inflammations of eye...
Some drugs are also known to cause this problem.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
