Managing Migraine Migraine is a headache that can cause severe pain, nausea, sensitivity to light and sound. It can last from hours to days and causes many people to miss work. It is thought that up to 60% of migraine attacks are triggered by light, and 80% of people with migraine suffer from light sensitivity. We know that some wavelengths of light, particularly blue, amber, and red contribute to discomfort and migraine, and that green light can be soothing. A new lens called Avulux has been designed to reduce glare sensitivity and prevent migraine. It filters 97% of the triggering light wavelengths whilst letting the soothing green light through. The Avulux lenses are like your own portable dark room. We can make prescription glasses with the Avulux tint and have trial glasses in practice for people to take on loan. For some of our patients this is life changing.
