any brain surgery needs to recover. it will take months. mine was almost 2-3 months. i too had sensitivity after the surgery but that went away in a couple of days. some take longer. just track it and write it down. when the dr appt arrives talk about it.

I just got this same surgery a few weeks ago and I experienced light sensitivity too and I had lots of head pain. I was also severely tired and would sleep all day for the first week and a half after the surgery. It’s been a little over two weeks since I’ve got the surgery and I’m still tired but I’m not sleeping all day anymore. I just get tired easily and can’t do a lot without it making me tired and making me become physically weak. Bed rest mixed with some occasional walking around is what I’ve found most helpful because I get to rest while also building up strength.

You have migraines they can do a lot to you check with your doctor

I have severe light sensitivity. Even sunglasses dont help or shade really. I cant even be underneath certain kinds of lights which tend to be led ones in restaurants churches or the like( they are popular now days) it makes me sick to my stomach, dizzy, my head and brain hurt and i get shooting pains. I have to when the sun is shining bright out here in florida just cover my head the best possible and sometimes walk around with my eyes shut alot. And my hands over my eyes although like i said even hats and sunglasses dont seem to help. Blinking lights can cause me to have seizures and headlights from cars make me go blind and not be able to see for up to 8 minutes some times same with flashlights and such. I have sat under lights or been in stores and literally vomited because of it and or collapsed and had to crawl somewhere with more shade. I am more careful and try to shop until i know its unsafe and crouch where i can in darker areas or even sit down and put my sweater over my head. Ive never had brain surgery because im not a candidate due to the risks involving my nerve and brain reactions and seizure severity. I live with it somehow and its hard but i stay determined to anyways

I have intense light sensitivity from other neuro issues. I wear a hat and wrap-around sunglasses. Also, my optometrist gave me some colored lenses to wear 10 minutes a day which helped me at first.
