If you suffer from migraines, you know how debilitating they can be. From intense head pain to nausea and light sensitivity, migraines can interfere with your daily life and make even the simplest tasks feel impossible. While many people turn to medication or lifestyle changes to manage their symptoms, there’s a new non-invasive option gaining attention: Avulux lenses.
Light sensitivity (also known as photophobia) is one of the most common symptoms associated with migraine. Certain wavelengths of light, especially blue, amber, and red light, can trigger or intensify migraine attacks. Many migraine sufferers report needing to retreat to a dark room just to find relief. But avoiding light isn’t always practical in today’s world, especially when screens and bright environments are hard to avoid.
Avulux is the world’s first clinically proven lens specifically designed for people living with migraine. Unlike standard tinted lenses or sunglasses, Avulux lenses are engineered using precision light-filtering technology that targets the wavelengths of light most commonly linked to migraine attacks. These lenses are available in both prescription and non-prescription options, making them accessible for a wide range of users.
Avulux lenses use advanced light-filtering technology to help reduce the impact of light sensitivity. Rather than simply darkening your view like traditional sunglasses, Avulux is designed to selectively filter out specific types of light that have been linked to migraine discomfort.
The lenses reduce exposure to certain wavelengths of light that can contribute to migraines, such as harsh blue, amber, and red tones, while still allowing in more calming, soothing light. This balance helps minimize overstimulation from light without making your surroundings overly dim.
By easing the burden of light on your eyes and brain, Avulux can help you feel more comfortable in bright environments and may lower the chance or severity of migraine episodes. For many people, this can mean fewer disruptions to their routine and greater confidence navigating everyday situations like working on a computer, shopping, or spending time outdoors.
Avulux lenses may be helpful for:
People who experience light-triggered migraines
Individuals with chronic migraine or frequent migraine episodes
Those who work long hours in front of screens or under fluorescent lighting
Anyone with heightened sensitivity to light during or between migraine attacks
We’ll begin with a comprehensive eye exam to assess your vision and discuss your migraine symptoms in detail. This allows us to determine whether Avulux lenses are a good fit for your needs and ensure that you receive the most effective and personalized care possible.
