Hi all

A student has gotten in touch and is looking for someone to answer a few questions over email about experience of light sensitivity to artificial light, such as fluorescent lighting or particular kinds of LEDs.

If this is something you may be interested in helping with or you would like more information, please email me on Debbie@lupusuk.org.uk and I will put you in touch with them.

Many thanks

Debbie

hello, I’d be happy to help, i’m retired now, but in my working days I didn’t have a diagnosis of lupus which I have now but I always had to have the fluorescent lights off in the office and if I was in any health setting or GP surgery I’d have to ask them to turn off the light As my eyes would become irritated and I could not look toward the light at all.
