Hi there,
Yes it is treatable in many cases. For example I had a corneal abrasion and just stayed in a pitch black room but it went totally away after the abrasion healed. There’s also treatment for migraines which in about 90% of cases are affected by photophobia so that’s treatable in many people in there are quite a few other photophobias that are treatable.
As far as photosensitive Epilepsy is concerned There isn’t an actual cure but medication can in many patients prevent seizures so in Epilepsy there is treatment in some people. Also if they avoid looking at flashing lights we’re going places where fluorescent lights are their chances of seizures are greatly reduced if not totally controlled. I’m not saying this is correct but as I understand it everyone with this affliction should seek treatment because I understand this issue has the potential to become permanent.
Take care,
Jake
