Distinctive Eyewear is now offering Avulux lenses, which help patients that suffer from light sensitivity and migraine. Up to 60% of migraine attacks are triggered by light.
Light overexcites melanopsin, a cell in your eye, and it can lead to migraine attacks and increased light-triggered pain. Avulux's Harvard-studied, science-based precision lens technology filters up to 97% of the most harmful, migraine-triggering light (in the blue, amber, and red light spectrum), while allowing in over 70% of soothing green light.
Not only do the Avulux lenses help throughout your day, including during any trigger activities like extended screen time or exposure to harsh light and glare, they can be used when you you feel migraine or light sensitive symptoms are coming on. The lenses aren’t a coating that can easily be scratched; they are lenses that effectively absorb the additional harmful wavelengths of light that other glasses on the market do not absorb. Best of all, you can wear them indoors and outdoors without color distortion
