This is one of my great sensitivities. I can't drive without sunglasses. My eyes will tear up and I'm unable to keep them open.
I’m with you. Do you get it at the movies too? IMAX is too much but if I go to a smaller screen theatre I’m usually ok.
No not in theaters unless it's a really bright scene like an explosion.
Going outside to let my dogs out in the AM is genuinely painful! The dark to light is SHOCKING mentally and physically, I used polarized glasses for driving for the same reason you do. I find certain kinds of lights to be agitating even not just uncomfortable or painful
