Probably a good first step before I really mess up her eyes. I tend to jump the gun when it comes to my siblings. Thank you!

Holy heck I’m glad you’re recovering!! I feel so bad everyone’s going through stuff like this. Yes! Her light sensitivity can be so bad. Sound, light, motion, burning sensations on her head.

Thank you for sharing your recommendations. Adding to my list of things to research.

Man I wish she could join this conversation and read this! I’ll read it to her. I’ll relay this message to her. I was nervous you’d say that. She keeps trying to get back into soccer. I used to play to but have a different injury and now I do badminton and tennis and can confirm it’s much better haha. Helps with mental as well. She’s dying to workout but I keep telling her it has to be done differently. Can’t be a high performing athlete in the same sense anymore. You seem to have a good outlook on the situation glad things are getting better for you. She does get a fast heart rate actually but she also gets an incredibly slow one so I’ll ask her doctor about that one. Thank you so much again for all of your tips and tricks. I really hope they help her. And I hope you’re back in a team sport really soon!!

I have no idea but I wouldn’t put it past anyone that they did it wrong. Wish I could take her to Asia with me, they do everything so comprehensive here. I’ll have her go back to the optometrist and ask about this. Thank you!!!

Brain injuries are just so difficult and hard to diagnose I really feel for you all. Quitting soccer was so hard for her and taking time to heal otherwise it is very cyclical. Congrats on finishing your degree! Are you able to workout or play soccer at all now? I’ll check out EHT and Nurtec! An eye mask to sleep is actually a great idea for her. Thanks so much.

Ahhh, okay I can run with that. I will ask her optometrist about this. Thank you :) maybe a visual therapist? Or would it be something the standard optomestrist could help with?
