Photophobia, despite its name, does not mean a fear of: having your photo taken, cameras, looking at pictures, or of photosynthesis occurring. Photophobia is instead defined as an abnormal sensitivity to light. Those suffering from photophobia may experience pain, headaches, and suffer from comorbid conditions such as anxiety and having difficulty sleeping. Sensitivity to light can be exacerbated by fluorescent lighting.
