Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses in Waitsfield, VT

Avulux is the only clinically proven lens for people living with migraine and light sensitivity. 

Do you have migraine? Does light trigger or worsen your migraine attacks? 

You’re not alone.  

Millions of people around the world have migraine disorder. And as many as 90% of those people experience light sensitivity during a migraine attack.  

Up to 60% of migraine attacks are triggered by light.   

That is why we offer Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses.  

Nine out of every ten Avulux wearers report that they can resume their daily activities when they use the lenses. 

How is Avulux different than other “migraine” glasses on the market? 

Unlike other “migraine” or “neurological” lenses, Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses are clinically proven to help people living with migraine. Two independent studies have demonstrated that Avulux’s patented light filtering technology is superior to any others.  

This is one of the main reasons why we carry Avulux in our practice. We trust Avulux to help our patients manage the impact of light on their lives. 

Why else do we recommend Avulux? 

No Side Effects

Avulux’s clinically proven lenses precisely filter light to help people living with migraine without any negative side effects.

Superior Color Accuracy

Avulux lenses don’t distort color perception – no pink, yellow, or blue hue. Avulux’s neutral color enables you to manage light comfortably without affecting your quality of life.

No Recurring Costs

Once you’ve paid for Avulux, they’re yours for the lifetime of the product – no subscriptions or other monthly costs.

Enjoy the Activities You Love

Avulux can be worn indoors or outdoors and even used as a complement to your migraine wellness regimen.

How Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses work

Not all light waves are the same. Light in the blue, amber, and red spectrum causes photosensitive retinal ganglion cells to release melanopsin. Put simply, for people living with migraines this can trigger a migraine attack – or make it worse.

However, light in the green spectrum is soothing.

That’s why Avulux engineers developed a lens that precisely filters up to 97% of the most harmful blue, amber, and red light while allowing in up to 70% of soothing green light.

How do you know if Avulux is right for you?

Start by speaking to your eye doctor. We are trained professionals who can identify whether Avulux would be an appropriate part of your migraine toolkit.

If you experience several headache days per month along with other migraine symptoms, and you’re sensitive to light, there is a strong possibility that Avulux is right for you.

Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses are available in prescription and non-prescription. 

Experience the benefits of Avulux and get the look you want by choosing from our wide selection of frames.  

Avulux comes in prescription and non-prescription, and you can order:  

  • Single vision 
  • Progressive vision 
  • Anti-scratch hardcoat 
  • Anti-reflective coating

Mad River Eye Care is a truly patient-centered practice. From the front desk to the doctors, everyone is focused on providing the best possible care. Judy the front desk receptionist is an excellent communicator, patient and kind. Judy demonstrated excellent customer service while prioritizing the needs of the patient offering flexibility with a cheerful attitude. Lenny our Optometric Technician, was efficient and friendly. The technical expertise he showed along with providing direct patient care and educating the patient was unparalleled. Dr. Morgan McClintic is very thorough with her exams. She provided excellent explanations that were clear and explained various options, spent extra time answering questions with ease and patience. Her passion for eye care and her rapport with her patients through conversation and humor allowed for a stress-free visit for the patient. Excellent service in the optical center. Danielle was such a pleasure to work with just adding to the 5-star experience. The optician was so patient and knowledgeable and recommended some brands to help me choose. I will be ordering some glasses soon.

Dr Mitchell and his staff are absolutely wonderful and professional. Went in for an eye exam and a new prescription. The office is very clean , well lit and inviting . Everyone including the receptionist are so friendly, kind and patient. Very advanced technology in this office . Dr Mitchell was patient , thorough and went above and beyond to make sure my prescription was accurate. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable with the eye exam . I would definitely recommend anyone to to this office for your vision needs . I'd even go as far as to say this was the best experience I've ever had at an optometrist office. So glad to be a new patient.

Mad River Eye Care for the win!! What an amazing customer service experience I had today with this group. We are in town visiting and my daughter’s shipment of contacts was delayed. I called Mad River Eye Care and within an hour we had a new supply of contacts. They really saved the day and were such a pleasure to work with. 10 out of 10 experience for this team + Dr. Mitchell. Thank you!!

A terrific office! Nice people, very modern and up to date equipment and Dr. Mitchell is superb! Explains everything thoroughly and understandably. Wish they weren’t an hour away! But it’s worth the trip.
