Tinted Glasses Transformed Life for Gateshead Woman with 'Visual Stress'

  • Shona Quine, a 50-year-old personal assistant from Gateshead, transformed her life in 2025 by using special light-tinted glasses to manage her visual stress.
  • She struggled with overwhelming light sensitivity, headaches, and reading difficulties caused by visual stress, which occurs when certain light overstimulates brain visual areas.
  • Shona visited specialist Andrew Keyes at Keyes Eyecare, where a tailored assessment identified the precise lens tint that relieved her symptoms and improved daily activities like shopping and work.
  • Her husband Jon noticed a huge difference, and Shona said, "Everything is just slotting into place," adding she is now enjoying her job and feeling less exhausted and anxious.
  • This case highlights how bespoke tinted lenses can normalize brain activity for those with visual stress, offering relief especially for neurodivergent individuals who often endure symptoms silently.
