What Causes Photosensitivity?

I have unequal pupils which fluctuate and are responsive to light. I have really bad light sensitivity and my eyes feel like they don t focus well, even with glasses. I recently got diagnosed with Chiari Malformation and have been having symptoms for almost two years, I will be having surgery soon. But my MRI/MRA showed no brain bleed.tumor, just the chair.. why have my pupils started this? It s been nearly 10 months and its starting to stay consistent more often now.

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR, sunlight) may improve some skin diseases such as psoriasis and eczema etc. Other dermatological diseases. Usually attribute to particular part of electromagnetic radiation spectrum,but rarely visible light may also cause some photodermatose.. The sites affected tend to be those with maximum exposure to sunshine- the face, nose and cheeks but excluding the eye lids,an area under the chin and shadow of nose. If your both eyelids are swelling there may be eye bhotosesisivity start and are more prone to more brightness of life. Occur sudden difficulty to view object but only prome few second.
