New MigraShades Sunglasses Provide Help For Migraine Sufferers

Oct. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- ST. LOUIS, MO – Migraine sufferers now have a new weapon to reduce headaches triggered by light. MigraShades™ announces the creation of specially designed sunglasses that combine new technology with true ophthalmic grade high-performance lenses to block harmful radiant light and protect against pupil dilation by some 99 per cent. The result is the best eye product on the market today that specifically addresses the special needs of the migraineur.

Developed by Industrial Vision Corporation, a company with 30 years of experience in the manufacturing of ophthalmic and occupational lenses, MigraShades are darker than ordinary sunglasses. These high-tech lenses have internal filters to block UVA/UVB and other horizontal light waves that can strain the eyes and trigger headaches. By filtering blue light and reflective light, MigraShades eliminates the haze and erratic wave lengths not filtered in regular sunglass lenses.

“Some 30 million Americans suffer from these types of vascular headaches. Many have been unable to find a sunglass product that can help them function when the sun is at its daily peek,” said John Stewart, MigraShades President. “Through many months of testing with migraineurs we have created sunglasses that specifically sooth the effects of bright and often debilitating sunlight.”

“These are not the standard sunglasses you would normally find at a drug store. This is a custom made high-performance product, available only on the MigraShades website,” Stewart said. “Based on our three decades of experience in ophthalmic lens manufacturing we are confident MigraShades can help anyone who wants to eliminate those headache triggers caused by moving from a dark room into a sunny, outdoor setting.”

MigraShades are available in five fashionable frame styles. Both prescription and non-prescription lenses are available. To order visit www.migrashades.com or call 800-264-1941.
