Low light vision.

I was always very sensitive to bright lights and sincerely fear I'll go blind at my last years but I can see at higher definition under low light conditions.

My vision stops processing color and I get higher definition of contrast. I've walked through dark areas with no difficulty, where others simply said they could not see a thing.

I'm not very sensitive to bright lights. But I can also see better in low-light conditions than anyone I know. Not sure how that works.
