I definitely find the allay lamps helpful. I use them almost exclusively instead of my normal lights now and it’s reduced the severity of my migraines a lot as I’m very sensitive to light. Though, I… read more

Hello Everyone, Looking Into Our Cell Phones A Lot Can Cause Migraine Attacks
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone tried the green color therapy glasses or the rose tinted color for migraines? Which color do you think is better for migraines? A neurologist online recommended the green color therapy glasses for migraines.
I'm looking for something least expensive that works.

The rose tinted glasses are gnerally speaking for indoor use only where there are a lot of florescent lighting. I have a pair of MIGRALENS and they filter out both the blue and the red spectrum, and… read more

I'm Looking For Advise On Tinted Migraine Glasses
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Has anyone used glasses tinted to block blue/green light? My photo sensitivity seems to be getting worse. I were glasses and have prescription sunglasses, but I find it a hassle going form one pair to another and don't like being inside with the sunglasses on. My prescription is expensive and I wear my glasses all the time so buying a non prescription to try is not an option,

I've had mine for over 2 years now and some days they are the only reason I am able to go outside. Great customer service with quick response.

Has Anyone Used TheraSpecs, If So What Was Your Experience? I'm Looking At The Ones That Can Be Worn Over Prescription Glasses
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Bright light is definitely a trigger and even when light wasn't the particular trigger when a migraine starts I often wear sunglasses indoors. I even had to put them on during church Sunday because the sunlight was glaring off of the snow on a hill across the street from our church. The window it was coming in was on the other side of the sanctuary and just barely in my peripheral vision, that was an unwelcome first. I wear sunglasses outside most of the time now too, ever since I had cataract… read more

Eye Aura
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

Just woke up and found this team. So hello! I'm interested in talking with others who might have a similar aura that I have. It's what I call "The Lava Light Effect". About 50% of the time when a migraine is coming on, my vision goes to nearly black with purple and green glowing lights that bubble back and forth like a 70's era Lava Lamp. Anybody else have this happen?

My eye aura is a couple of things. One looks like a pin wheel as it moves across my visual field, and the other is like the bottom of Charlie Brown's zigzag shirt. Such an electrifying experience!

Light Bulbs
A MyMigraineTeam Member asked a question 💭

What kind of light bulbs do you use at home? I deal w/ many types of lighting at work and when I get home after my 12.5 hour shifts the last thing I want is to be blasted w/ more bright lights. I am ultra sensitive to lights as it is and wear tinted glasses at work and sunglasses outside of work (even at night and indoor). My roommate also suffers from migraines and I would like to replace all the light bulbs w/ something a lot less hurtful.
