Default Sunlight and general light sensitivity?

I am a white male working in the desert from the first time and I have developed extreme light sensitivity. To the extent that if there is a glimmer of light in the eye of someone I am talking to I cant hold eye contact. I am also slightly dislexic and have slight tunnell vision. Can anyone help or has anyone had this experience. This is really pis.sing me off as I can no longer hold even a semi long conversation with anyone. Also yes this problem has remained with me when I have gone back to less bright surroundings. I cant shake it anywhere.

Prosthetic contact lenses are made to reduce the discomfort of photophobia. Wear sunglasses and broad rimmed hats. See an ophthalmologist for a review of any medications that you may be taking and to investigate any health conditions you may have that could be the triggering cause.
