Hi everyone
Mum's eyesight seems to be dimming. She needs blazing lights all the time, even in daytime. I thought at first it was habit, come into the house and put the lights on, but as days get shorter, the more she needs light, even when it is not at all dark. The way I see it, her vision is becoming darker and she is more agitated and frightened of the dark.
Has anyone else had any experience of this and is there a solution? Is it another symtom of dementia?
I won't be able to get Mum to an optician as she is against anyone, examining her and won't co-operate. Even though her feet are very sore (with corns) she will not let the chriopidist do anything other than talk, or rather listen, while Mum tells her a lot of "stories".
