How do Avulux Migraine Glasses Work?
Research shows that specific wavelengths of light can trigger or worsen migraine attacks for the 90% of people with migraine who experience light sensitivity. While harmful blue, amber, and red light can be problematic, green light has been proven to have a soothing effect.
Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses are clinically proven to filter up to 97% of these harmful light wavelengths while allowing in over 70% of beneficial green light. Unlike FL-41 lenses, which lack any clinical evidence for migraine or light sensitivity relief, Avulux is the only lens technology proven effective through rigorous clinical testing.
Do Blue Light Glasses Help People With Migraine?
There’s more to light sensitivity than blue light alone. Both blue and amber light affect cells in your eye that secrete melanopsin. That can lead to migraine attacks and increased light-triggered pain.
Avulux lenses are effective in managing light as they absorb harmful blue, amber, and red light before it enters your eyes, only allowing soothing green light to pass.
Patented Light Filtering Technology That Keeps Your World Natural
Avulux's patented precision lens technology filters up to 97 percent of blue, amber, and red light while allowing in over 70 percent of soothing green light. This may help people living with migraine.
And, unlike blue light lenses, FL-41 tinted lenses, or other kinds of migraine glasses, Avulux lenses were designed to be color neutral so you can live comfortably, without affecting your quality of life.
FAQs
Migraine and light sensitivity can be complex and success can be measured in many ways.
Avulux was made to help people with migraine and light sensitivity get through their days without having to isolate in a dark room.
Certain wavelengths of light have been shown to worsen migraine headache pain and even incite migraine attacks. Avulux precisely filters light at certain areas in the visible light spectrum, they can be worn indoors or outdoors without distorting how you perceive color, and may help people living with migraine.
Whether it's being able to spend your time with family and friends, being able to work under harsh lighting, reducing the impact of light on your daily activities, or walking outside without fear of light, we recognize all of these as successes with Avulux. We offer a 60 day money-back guarantee so you can be sure you're happy with your Avulux glasses.
Avulux lenses can be an important part of the toolkit for people living with migraine and light sensitivity, and can be safely used together with pharmaceuticals or neuromodulation devices.
Yes. However, Avulux lenses are not recommended for driving due to their precision filtration properties.
You can wear Avulux continuously whether you're indoors or outdoors. Wearing Avulux will not dark adapt your eyes (you will not become more light sensitive by wearing Avulux).
We encourage you to wear your glasses during any triggering activities like extended screen time, when exposed to harsh artificial light, or even under sunlight. If not worn continuously, be sure to wear your Avulux glasses as soon as you feel any migraine or light sensitivity symptoms.
Wearing sunglasses can dark adapt your eyes. Consistently wearing sunglasses can significantly prevent light across the visible spectrum from entering your eyes which can make you even more sensitive to light. This increase in light sensitivity could more easily trigger migraine symptoms and increase light-triggered pain.
If you're currently wearing sunglasses, or dark glasses, indoors, wear Avulux for at least 2-3 weeks to allow your eyes to adapt to the lighter tint.
It is important that you wear the glasses during daily events that tend to cause your migraine attacks and light-triggered pain to begin, such as prolonged time spent in front of a computer screen, television, smartphone, or under harsh lighting.
Otherwise, you should put on the migraine glasses as soon as you feel migraine or light sensitivity symptoms beginning. This may be the earliest feeling of your typical migraine headache pain, or a typical migraine aura such as visual disturbances, facial tingling, eye strain, eye pain etc.
If you have frequent migraine attacks or have chronic migraine, meaning that you average more than two migraine headaches weekly lasting at least 3 hours a day, you should consider wearing your glasses at all times, whether day or night.
We offer a 60-day home trial period, and if you're not satisfied with how Avulux migraine glasses can help manage light, you may return them in original condition (no scratches nor deformation).
It's important that Avulux is worn before the light-triggered pain becomes unbearable. Research has shown that light-triggered pain can be worsened through continuous exposure to light.
If you feel Avulux isn't helping you manage light as a trigger, we suggest wearing Avulux continuously throughout your day (and while in front of any digital screens or under harsh lighting) for at least two weeks so you can be sure about whether they're helping you manage light.
