What ability is it for something to cause a person sharp pain and make their eyes to bleed from looking at it

Depends, but at minimum some sort of pain manip, but typically in my experience stuff like that comes from messing with someone's mind, either with too much information or what have you, so once again, depends

Alright for context -

Essentially some powerful beings/things in the setting are said to be "significant" (A term which is said to mean that they are imbued with "Authority" which is itself a term that describes their power to directly influence concepts that make up reality) such that the real thing intrudes on any depictions of it.

A character views symbols meant to represent particularly powerful beings that themselves represent the most basis aspects of reality and the resulting effect is that he can only look at them for seconds at a time without beginning to bleed from his eyes (And although the symbols don't change they are hard to grasp because the viewers eyes keep shifting around them).

Even when these symbols are reproduced with an illusion the effect is still the same though somewhat weakened as "no depiction of [the person who made the illusion] could carry the total significance"
