In some people, sensitivity to light is so severe that it can cause headaches.
Migraine manifests as frequent headaches. It is generally debilitating because it can interfere with the sufferer's activities.
A migraine lasts between 4 and 72 hours.
Symptoms include phonophobia, photophobia, nausea, and even vomiting, and are generally aggravated by physical exertion.
Three times more common in women than in men, it often develops between the ages of 10 and 40.
There are various causes of migraine, with the ophthalmic factor being a frequently cited cause.
Wavelengths below 500 nm are primarily implicated in triggering migraines. This mainly refers to blue light.
By effectively and precisely filtering the right wavelengths, a lens can inhibit chemical behaviors in the brain and/or regulate the wearer's circadian cycle.
Magelis Classic - The anti-migraine shade
Magelis tint works on several levels. It eliminates harmful and debilitating blue light and affects light transmission and perception.
In addition to acting on neurotransmitters by modifying the visible spectrum, the Magelis tint also limits light transmission, which causes additional stress. It is therefore beneficial in combating photophobia.
Worn continuously, this tint reduces visual stress and attenuates bright flashes of light.
This dual action significantly reduces migraine and/or epileptic seizures.
Light transmission
Available in five different light settings, each patient can choose the intensity that suits them best according to their sensitivity.
Magelis Akebi
A winning combination Headaches & Contrast
The Akebi tint works on several levels. It eliminates harmful and debilitating blue light and affects light transmission and perception.
In addition to UV protection, the purpose of migraine tints is to reduce wavelengths around 484 nm. Excessive brightness in this wavelength can cause ophthalmic migraines in some people.
By reducing this peak of light, the wearer benefits from active prevention against migraines.
Melanopsin is the photopigment found in the ganglion cells of the retina responsible for light transmission. These cells are more sensitive to blue light and may play a role in the onset of migraines.
By effectively and precisely filtering the right wavelengths, a lens can inhibit the brain's chemical behavior and effectively relieve the wearer.
