Photophobia (Light Sensitivity) and Migraine | AMF
My questions as I'm sure you are aware were to rule out obvious explanations for your symptoms.
The following is speculation.
The light symptoms that you are experiencing are known variously as a visual aura or fortification patterns etc and are associated with migraine. In addition intense photophobia is also associated with migraine. See link above.
Thats all I've got for you. Sorry.
I wish you well. Keep us informed of your progress and any diagnosis.
