Relief for eyes that can’t stand the light
If you live with migraine, you know light can be the enemy — fluorescent office lighting, bright Texas sun, screens, headlights at night. Light sensitivity (photophobia) is one of the most common migraine symptoms, and for many people certain light is a trigger itself. Ordinary sunglasses and blue-light glasses were not made for this. Avulux was.
What Avulux is
Avulux is a lens made specifically for people with migraine and light sensitivity — the first lens to receive FDA authorization for that use, and clinically proven. It is not a tint and not a drug. You wear it as your everyday glasses, in your exact prescription, so it manages light all day without medication and without darkening your world the way sunglasses do indoors.
How it works
Research on migraine and light found that specific bands of light — in the blue, amber, and red ranges — aggravate the pathways involved in migraine pain, while green light is the band the migraine brain tolerates best. Avulux’s patented lens technology filters out most of the harmful blue, amber, and red light while letting the soothing green light through. The world still looks natural — just easier on your eyes and your head.
Who it helps
- People whose migraines are triggered or worsened by light
- People with light sensitivity between attacks, not only during them
- Screen workers whose days end in eye strain and head pain
- Anyone whose current “migraine glasses” are ordinary tinted lenses that don’t do enough

An honest note
Avulux manages light — it does not cure migraine, and it does not replace your neurologist or your migraine treatment plan. What it offers is drug-free, all-day light management as one part of living better with migraine. Many of our patients notice the difference the first day they wear them under office lights.
