I've been reading about Norb green light bulbs and how pure green light can reduce pain signals interpreted by our brains. Has anyone tried Norb pure green light bulbs? Does it work?
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
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
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.
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

Just saw an article about sitting in front of green led lights helps alleviate some who suffer from migraine pain. Google the article for background info. Has anyone tried?
I have been using any amber screen over my lights or the Himalayan salt lamps. I'll have to look In to green. Funny I never thought of that color for relief . It been amber lights inside. You can… read more
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!
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.
I can't find any light bulbs that don't hurt my eyes. My son is constantly calling me Mother Theresa because I am always wearing a wight towel over my head to shield my eyes. Sunlight is not too… read more
I just got an article in my inbox that spoke about using weighted blankets. I knew nothing about them.
Has anyone tried a weighted blanket to help with sleep or pain at night?

Anyone else have luck BeKooool Soft Gel Sheets? Tamed my migraine last night. That plus 2 tabs of advil. Had a small cup of coffee with dinner. Might have been the cause. Anyway, it really helped.
You're welcome. Tried them the other night. Had a migraine that started around 12:30 AM. They really helped me.
