Noise and light hypersensitivity in public

For as long as I can remember, I've had issues with light sensitivity and have been told it's not due to some serious underlying medical disorder (I have other disabilities too) and nothing to worry about. At some point, I was also sensitive to noise; which has started again.

Both make going out in public difficult. Can manage with people just talking; but not full on shouting. Can't deal with lamposts, headlights, etc. - espeically in the dark.

How do people manage with either or, or both? Do know someone whose noise sensitivity is much worse and she needs to wear ear plugs / defenders and can't listen to music.
