Office lights tend to be a lot more blue than what's used in homes.
That's true. Office fluorescents are often a very clinical and harsh tone.
Maybe it's something to do with the breadth of the spectrum? Are some eyes better at utilizing a wife spectrum even if the intendity is lower, while other eyes care prinarily about the maximum intensity?
Or maybe it's something to do with exposure? Some people can't see the intensity difference between spill light from outside and dedicated room lights because their brain adjusts the effective exposure differently?
Maybe it's overexposure filtering. Some people get headaches from brighter light but don't notice the brightness because of all the extra work their visual cortex is doing to filter out the extra light, while other people genuinely need the extra intensity?
I'd be really surprised if people who have a neurological abnormality also happen to have a difference in eye anatomy, especially when the neurological anomaly is associated with other sensory processing issues. Occam's razor suggests that all the sensory processing issues NNT people have are a result of their brains being different.
