UNDERSTANDING LIGHT SENSITIVITY

What Are Avulux Lenses?

Avulux lenses are designed for patients who experience migraines or light sensitivity. They filter certain types of light that can feel harsh, while still allowing you to see clearly in everyday environments.

They can be added to prescription or non-prescription glasses and worn throughout your day.

When Light Becomes a Trigger

For some people, it’s not just about clarity—it’s how light feels. Bright indoor lighting, screens, and even natural light can sometimes lead to discomfort or make symptoms worse.

A Different Approach to How Your Glasses Refracts Light

Unlike standard lenses, Avulux lenses are designed to filter specific types of light that may be more difficult for your eyes to handle, without making everything darker like sunglasses.

WHO ARE THESE LENSES FOR?

They’re often used by patients who experience migraines or feel sensitive to light in everyday settings like work, home, or while using screens.

WILL THEY CHANGE HOW THINGS LOOK?

You may notice a subtle tint, but they’re designed to keep colors usable and vision clear for daily activities.

CAN I WEAR THEM ALL DAY?

Yes. These lenses are made for everyday use, whether you’re indoors, working, or moving between different lighting environments.

WILL THEY WORK FOR ME?

Some patients notice a difference, while others may not need them. We’ll help you decide if they’re worth trying based on your experience.

Do You Suffer From Migraines?

Avulux lenses aren’t a one-size solution, but they can be helpful for patients who notice discomfort in certain lighting conditions. St. Louis Optics will keep the conversation simple and help you decide whether they make sense for your routine.
