Light sensitivity and migraines can disrupt daily activities, making tasks like reading, driving, and using digital devices challenging. At The Center for Vision Development, we offer a new cutting-edge solution: Avulux lenses, FDA-approved specialty lenses specifically designed to treat migraines and light sensitivity.
Light sensitivity, or photophobia, often accompanies migraines and other neurological or ocular conditions. It can result in debilitating symptoms, including headaches, eye strain, and visual fatigue. Photophobia may be caused by:
Neurological conditions, including migraines
Prolonged digital screen use
Traumatic brain injuries such as concussions
Genetic factors or ocular inflammation
For those experiencing light sensitivity, even routine activities in bright environments can become overwhelming. Avulux lenses are a game-changer for managing these symptoms effectively.
Avulux lenses are FDA-approved and clinically proven to help mitigate the impact of light sensitivity and migraines. They use advanced light-filtering technology to precisely filter out specific wavelengths of light, targeting those that most commonly trigger symptoms while allowing soothing light through.
Migraine Relief: Avulux lenses reduce exposure to harmful light wavelengths, decreasing migraine frequency and intensity.
Improved Comfort: They enhance visual comfort in bright or triggering environments, making everyday tasks more manageable.
Broad Applicability: Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, Avulux lenses are versatile and can be worn throughout the day.
No Side Effects: Avulux lenses are clinically proven to help people living with migraines by filtering harmful light without any negative side effects.
No Color Distortion: Designed to be color neutral, Avulux lenses provide comfort without affecting your perception of colors or quality of life.
While Avulux lenses offer a specialized solution for migraines and light sensitivity, other options like FL-41 tinted lenses or custom tints can also be beneficial for some patients.
FL-41 lenses feature a rose-colored tint that filters out blue-green light wavelengths, which are known to exacerbate migraines and photophobia. Studies have shown that FL-41 lenses can reduce the frequency and severity of light-triggered migraines, providing relief in both indoor and outdoor settings.
For individuals with unique visual needs, custom tints tailored to specific light sensitivities can also be an effective option. During your eye exam, we’ll evaluate your symptoms and recommend the most appropriate lens solution for your condition.
If migraines and light sensitivity are affecting your quality of life, Avulux lenses could be the solution you need. At The Center for Vision Development, we understand that managing migraines and light sensitivity is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We provide personalized care to ensure every patient receives the most effective treatment.
