Havent had RT....too scared. But bc my tumor was a beast it pressed on my optic nerve and my eyes would get tired. Also, the computer makes it worse and lots of sunlight. One more thing about computers and sunlight, if your desk is facing the window, the computer light and the sunlight compete and it makes it harder for your eyes to focus and makes them much more tired. If this is the case try moving your computer so the light shines on it from behind you. Hope that helps!

I find bright lights hurt my eyes Ive not had surgery or RT but this is what I have to watch out for keeping away from bright lights eg sunshine or people suddenly switching on lights and night driving I avoid if I can because of the headlights this makes my eyes strained and tired.

Bright lights hurt my eyes too and every morning when I wake up my eyes are swollen nearly closed completely for about 5 minutes. Takes about 30 minutes to get full vision.

Hi,
Well, with me it’s nothing as drastic, but!! The son is too bright also at night it became harder to take the lights. But there are no pains to the eyes. Did you go to see the optician? Do, there you may learn something, and it will help your mind if all is well.
GOOD LUCK!!!!

My eyes are often tired and strained, but i put that down to working on a computer all day then logging on again at night time to check out DS and Facebook. I have noticed I have been more sensitive to sunlight lately. Must book an appointment with optician.
