Abstract:
Photophobia can affect a person's quality of life. We present a case of idiopathic photophobia that was successfully managed with smart light bulbs that allowed the patient to participate in daily activities. Smart light can complement other treatment options including tinted lenses. In conclusion, smart light is a novel way of treating photophobia and should be considered by clinicians.
