Photophobia is pain and watering of the eyes on exposure to bright light. It may be a symptom of several conditions like corneal injuries, meningitis etc.
The time taken for vision to adapt when a person goes into a dark room from a well lit room is called "dark adaptation" time and vice versa.

They call it photophobia. They hurt because of muscle strain trying to adjust to the sudden glaring light. Frequently migraine sufferers complain of this.
