These precision-filtering lenses are designed to selectively filter specific wavelengths of light while maintaining comfortable visual clarity. Below are frequently asked questions on Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses.

1. What are Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses?

Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses are precision optical filters designed to reduce the impact of light sensitivity in people with episodic migraine. At Covina Hills Optometric Group, we can help determine whether Avulux lenses are appropriate for your visual needs and lifestyle.

2. How do Avulux lenses work?

Avulux lenses selectively filter specific wavelengths of blue, amber, and red light while allowing other portions of the visible spectrum, including green light, to pass through. This specialized filtration can provide greater visual comfort when light sensitivity accompanies migraine.

3. Who can benefit from Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses?

Avulux is intended for patients ages 12 and older who have been diagnosed with episodic migraine and experience light sensitivity. At Covina Hills Optometric Group in Covina, CA, we evaluate your visual needs and discuss whether these lenses fit appropriately into your overall care.

4. Can Avulux help with migraine-related light sensitivity?

Yes. Avulux is specifically designed to decrease the impact of light sensitivity associated with episodic migraine. Patients who are bothered by bright or uncomfortable lighting may find that these lenses make everyday visual environments easier to manage.

5. Are Avulux lenses the same as regular tinted glasses?

No. Avulux lenses use a patented multi-band precision optical filter rather than simply darkening everything you see. This means the lenses target specific wavelengths associated with light sensitivity instead of relying on a general dark tint.

6. Are Avulux lenses the same as FL-41 lenses?

No. Avulux and FL-41 use different filtering technologies. Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses use multi-band filtration that targets blue, amber, and red wavelengths while allowing more green light through.

8. Can I use Avulux lenses while working on a computer?

Avulux lenses can be worn during computer use if screen light contributes to your discomfort. At our Covina, CA practice, we consider your work habits, screen time, prescription, and other visual demands when helping you choose an appropriate lens option.

9. Can Avulux lenses include my prescription?

Avulux lenses can be customized with your prescription to provide both vision correction and migraine-related light sensitivity support. Our team at Covina Hills Optometric Group in Covina, CA can review your prescription and help you choose the Avulux lens option that best fits your visual needs.

11. Will Avulux cure migraines for patients?

No. Avulux is not designed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent migraine. The lenses are designed to decrease the impact of migraine-related light sensitivity. We focus on setting clear expectations and helping patients understand how Avulux fits into their overall care.

12. Can teenagers wear Avulux Migraine Light Sensitivity Lenses?

Yes. Avulux is indicated for people ages 12 and older who have been diagnosed with episodic migraine. Families can speak with our eye doctors about whether Avulux may be appropriate for a teenager who experiences significant migraine-related light sensitivity.

13. Should I have an eye exam before getting Avulux lenses?
