I am not aware that: your condition can cause photophobia (light sensitivity) unless it affects your ability to close your eyelids, which technically ISN'T photophobia. The nerves involved in CCD are different from those that control your pupils. Your doctor should check for other causes of light sensitivity, including infection, inflammation and ocular foreign body. Best wishes. Dr. Anne
