Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.trouble seeing in sunlight.

Explanation:

This type of symptom is not normal to acquire with age, and it is called Photophobia.

This generates extreme sensitivity to sunlight or bright artificial light, it can even cause pain.

This can usually be caused by other medical conditions that are usually migranine, swelling inside the eye or having dry eyes.

This type of sensitivity is generated by a connection that exists between the part of the eye responsible for detecting light, and a nerve that is connected to the head.
