Photophobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear of light.
This isn’t an exaggerated fear like other phobias. Bright lights physically hurt the
Photophobe. Photophobia ranges from mild
to severe and may or may not be caused by disease. It is also known as light sensitivity. It is closely related to Photoaugliaphobia,
the fear of glaring lights.
A phobia is a strong,
persistent fear of situations, objects, activities or persons. The main symptom is an excessive and
unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. Other phobia symptoms include
shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, and an overall
feeling of dread. Phobias are the most
common form of anxiety disorders.
