What Causes Light Sensitivity In Eyes Of An Infant?

My 3 month old son s eyes hurt by direct sunlight this afternoon. I m not sure what exactly happened. When I pushed his stroller from shade to sunlight, he start crying. He didn t open his eyes for about 3 hours, and now he can not take light. We are keeping him in a dark room. Is it a serious issue?
