Living with migraines or chronic headaches can be life-disrupting. For many, bright light, screens, and certain environments can trigger symptoms or make existing pain worse. Fortunately, a non-invasive solution is helping many find real relief: Avulux® lenses.
Light sensitivity (photophobia) is one of the most common symptoms and triggers of migraines. Blue, amber, and red light wavelengths have been shown to contribute to discomfort, worsen existing migraines, or even trigger new migraine episodes. Traditional sunglasses may reduce overall brightness, but they also darken all light without targeting the specific wavelengths that cause problems.
Avulux is the first and only clinically proven lens designed specifically for people who suffer from migraines and light sensitivity. Unlike standard tinted lenses or sunglasses, Avulux lenses use patented light-filtering technology that targets specific wavelengths of light scientifically linked to migraine and headache pain.
Avulux lenses use a patented multi-band light filtration technology that selectively filters out harmful blue, amber, and red light while allowing beneficial green light to pass through. This unique approach reduces light sensitivity without overly darkening your vision or compromising color perception. Unlike typical sunglasses or blue-light blockers, Avulux is designed based on peer-reviewed clinical studies that demonstrate its effectiveness in reducing migraine and headache symptoms.
What sets Avulux apart is the clinical evidence behind it. In trials, many users reported a significant reduction in headache intensity and frequency when wearing the lenses during early migraine onset or throughout the day. The goal is not just comfort, but real, measurable improvement in quality of life.
Avulux lenses are ideal for people who:
They are non-pharmaceutical and can be worn daily or during specific tasks like working, driving, or using digital devices. They can also be worn at the start of a migraine episode to help prevent the headache from getting worse.
