A light-triggered migraine is not simply a reaction to brightness.
In some individuals, the brain cannot efficiently filter certain wavelengths of light. Instead of organizing visual input, the nervous system becomes overstimulated, which can lead to visual strain, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and migraines triggered by fluorescent lighting, sunlight, or digital screens.
