Maybe? To me light sensitive implies that light is causing a negative reaction.
Maybe light focused is a better phrase.
To that end, I mostly do not light bright places and cold white LED light. There are some notable exceptions like a workbench. But in a restaurant? It should we warm, dim light.
What you are asking (very poorly may I add) is what is your indoor light preference, sunlight or warm light?
I for one prefer warm lights, probably a genetic component from an appeal to candle and fire light passed down through my ancestors.
I do not like bright light bulbs.

Not really what I am asking, but your answer is related.

I’ve got outdated 2700k LED fixtures in my kitchen and had to replace one with a unit that is apparently 3000k.
I feel like the world is ending every morning when I turn it on.

I trained as an ISF video display calibrator and have tools used to do that. My eye is very trained to notice differences in grey scale and color.
As a photographer, I would like to be able to properly adjust my monitors so that I send out correctly adjusted images.

I'm a flashaholic so....yes.
Short range and especially with high lumens and/or a long throw emitter the light temperature needs to stay in the 3500K to 4000K range. Long throw lights reaching over 100 meters can go to 5000K. Anything over 5500K is too reflective to see anything clearly and color rendition is horribly inaccurate.
Ambient light bulbs in the house no more than 3000K
I have no idea what your question is referring to but the above is the "Light aware" that I deal with everyday.

Bright headlights bother my eyes but I don't pay much attention to any other light.

There are plenty of relatively inexpensive tools for this. For a photographer on a budget, this gets good reviews:

Yes. I have photophobia and highly sensitive to bright white and harsh lighting. Huge trigger for migraines.

I have to have my recessed lighting and lamps set to warm/yellow light (2700k). It really bothers my eyes at night if not. Cold light (4000k) only in kitchen prep area (stove and counters)
