Don’t Let Bright Sunlight Ruin Your Summer Fun
Summer is here – and with it comes long, glorious sunny days. Bliss! But if you’re one of the millions of people who experience light sensitivity, bright sunlight can hold you back from enjoying the good times.
Light Sensitivity Explained
Light sensitivity – also known as photophobia – is, quite simply, intolerance to light. If you have light sensitivity, light may trigger your migraine symptoms such as headache or nausea or make those symptoms worse.
Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses are the only clinically proven option on the market that can block the most uncomfortable wavelengths of light, while letting soothing light through - even on the brightest summer days.

The Link Between Light and Migraine
Bright sunlight, or artificial light, is directly connected to migraine symptoms.
If you live with migraine, you know it’s not just a headache. Symptoms can also include light sensitivity as well as nausea, visual disturbances, depression, fatigue, and more.
In fact, the World Health Organization ranks migraine among the top 20 most disabling medical conditions.
For about 80 percent of people with migraine, light – including sunlight – triggers or worsens migraine symptoms. Symptoms can start to appear in as little as five to 10 minutes for some people!
If this sounds like you, take heart in knowing that there’s a scientific reason for the link between light sensitivity and migraine: a Harvard study showed that blue, amber and red wavelengths of light can cause an increase in migraine intensity, while green light can be soothing.
