Hi,
Photophobia is a symptom of excessive sensitivity to any intensity of light.
It is a feeling of discomfort due to light exposure.
What is the concern regarding photophobia? Is that you are suffering from photophobia or is it a part of generalized disorder?
There are lot of causes of photophobia especially infection of brain like Meningitis,
Eye diseases like injury, or infection such as chalazion, episcleritis, and glaucoma.
Corneal lesions can also cause such symptoms.
Keep me informed if you have any queries.
Bye.
