Brief Answer:
Hello, welcome to ask a doctor services.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, welcome to ask a doctor services. I have read your question. I can understand your concern.
Your sister is suffering from sound sensitivity. It may be due to a medical condition called tinnitus, which is a buzzing or ringing in the ear.
Hyperacusis can also occur due to damage to one or both the ears, injury to the head, TMH, viral infection that affects the ears, Meniere's disease, certain kind of epilepsy, etc.
You are suggested to get her clinically examined by an ENT, or otolaryngologist. Your sisters medical history will be taken, her ears will be clinically examined, and a hearing test will be done to confirm it. She will be treated accordingly.
Your sister is also suffering from light sensitivity also. She is suggested to avoid bright light, use eye drops, or wear sunglasses.
Light sensitivity commonly results due to eye strain, dry eye, corneal infection or abrasion, depression and other nervous system disorders or brain disorders
Your sister is suggested to get clinically examined by an eye doctor so that required tests can be done and treatment started.
Neglect may lead to depression, anxiety, trouble to connect with others. Hope I have answered your question. Take care.
