A traumatic brain injury (TBI) results from a violent blow or impact to your head or body. This injury to a person’s brain can result in physical as well as mental and emotional effects that can last a lifetime. Similar to a concussion, one common symptom of a TBI is sensitivity to light or noise. If you or a loved one has sustained a TBI from a car accident, contact Mike Agruss Law for a free consultation so we can help you recover from this experience and get fairly compensated.

After a TBI from a car accident, it may seem that you are experiencing heightened perceptions of some of your senses, specifically light or noise. Some minor sounds that are usually present in normal, everyday environments might be perceived as loud, startling, or irritating. Or, bright lights can overwhelm your eyes and give you a headache. When part of the brain is hurt to the point that it has to work harder to process more of such information, it can cause an increased sensitivity to these senses.

Some suggestions to help the injured party cope with this injury may be to allot time to allow your brain to “recharge” so that it is not overwhelmed, consult with a physician to see if they can conduct any tests to see the severity of the injury. Physicians may be able to prescribe medications to ease the effects of sensory overload.
