Default Headlight Question

I've got a 2003 lariat crew cab F-150. It seems that if you push the left indicator out you get just high beams where if you pull it towards you you get full beam. Was wondering if there was a way to flip this so when you push it out you get full beam. I am disabled so only my right arm works and i spend a lot of my time on back roads so it'd be huge to be able to fix this. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Might be able to find a foot switch like the older cars had for high beams?

High beam only is better for distance lighting. Having a lot of foreground light makes you think you see better, but you don't. You eyes are horrible at judging the right amount of light.

Plus, with the high and low beams on all the time, it could overheat the wiring harness, not designed to run the current of both on all the time.
