Description Photophobia in the pediatric population is an uncommon complaint in the ophthalmology office, but one that can be debilitating for the patient and a cause of much consternation for the provider. In a prior retrospective review of 36 pediatric patients presenting with a primary complaint of photophobia, 25 of these children (69.4%), left the clinic without a specific diagnosis (Presented at the NANOS Annual Meeting, 2009). In this study, we seek to better understand why so many children leave the office without a specific diagnosis.
