My mom does that, but I believe it may be a sign of a tick, or at least that’s what my father once told me. Worth checking out in any case.
Every single time I walk outside, 3 sneezes sometimes more because of the sun. Although I’ve never met somebody else who does the same

Either I’ve had a tick for the past 19 years, or its unrelated in my case

I learned about the Photic Sneeze Reflex when discussing the frustration of cancelled sneezes (you know, when you feel one coming on, but then it just doesn’t happen and it leaves you feeling weird.) He told me, “When that happens, I just look at a light.” I had no idea what he meant. Meanwhile, he thought it was normal for everyone. We both learned something that day.

An entry for ACHOO syndrome in the National Library of Medicine, by Laura Dean from 2012 claims 1 in 4 people will be pushed over the edge to a sneeze when they already have one on the edge, but “pure” photic sneezing is “far less common” although there is no number given, so I have no idea how rare or common it is to just straight up sneeze from light without already having to sneeze
