It may sound weird but my eyes are sensitive to rain. I unintentionally blink when its rainy and when my eyes meet with rain drops.

It's been like this since my childhood.

I think it's autism related. Does any of you have this problem and did you ever find a solution

That's certainly possible, anything flying at or near the eyes can do that. Other than wearing a hat or goggles, I'm not sure what else you could do other than an umbrella.
