Review on Migraine Glasses: Ultimate Relief for Photophobia, Eye Strain & Light Sensitivity - Men and Women by Tricia Anderson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Help some but critically buggy

I have been suffering from severe photosensitivity and migraine aura for 10 years. When looking directly at some light sources like the sky and a computer screen, these glasses helped some. However, they don't appear to be polarized because some lights are *worse* to look at, like car headlights and some incandescent bulbs that have a stronger band of light that's hard to handle. They also reflect a lot of blue light from the inside of the lens (light comes from the back and sides) back into your eyes, which is the worst type of light for migraine sufferers. For some reason they also made high-contrast text (like white text on a black background) harder to read by adding weird highlights/strokes to the text. I've attached photos showing blue light reflections and degraded text contrast. Although the goggles had some tinting to help, they do reflect blue light from the light behind you back into your eyes, and the lack of polarization and other issues make them not worth wearing.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some bugs
