Red vision after being outside

[fluffy961]

MY mother-in-law was just outside with me ( for about 45 minutes maybe) She went inside & now everything looks red to her... She said this has happened before when she came in from being outside.

IF it is bright and sunny and especially if she has had cataract surgery and if she did not wear a hat or sunglasses it may be Pink vision due to ultraviolet affects on the retina. It is very unlikely that there is any damage from being outside in the future wear some eye protection.

Hi Fluffy~Seems like a form of photo-sensitivity to me, I would call the ophthalmologist and ask him/her what it could be and schedule a full eye exam appointment.
