Citation needed?
I never knew there was a name for sneezing when you look into a light. I am a photic sneezer?

"In the event that nasal discomfort occurs, but to an extent that is insufficient to induce a sneeze, intentionally seeking and finding a light source facilitates the sneezing process and is in turn a mode of relief.[citation needed]"

- I'm not sure how you're going to find a citation for this, other than I do it all the time and it seems I'm not alone. Is a facebook page (amongst 70,000 other results) called When I want to sneeze, I look at the sun enough?

ACHOO syndrome? Really? No such terminology exists, it is complete crap from someone trying to start a cute trend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.174.72.34 (talk) 09:41, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

- Agreed, someone fix it. Should be "Photic Sneeze Reflex". 119.224.133.92 (talk) 03:26, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

ACHOO syndrome → Photic Sneeze Reflex – This "cute" name may have some references in the literature, but as a simple example, most of the hits on Google Scholar are just bibliography references. Instead, I think we should use what I would consider a more proper name, "Photic Sneeze Reflex". This title is somewhat more descriptive, has always been the name I have been used to and lacks the outward immaturity of the "ACHOO syndrome" Apolloae (talk) 15:58, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought there would be some discussion on this, but it nobody cares then I would think it smart to make the change myself (after the 7 days have passed).Apolloae (talk) 17:07, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
