Specialty
Ophthalmic Lenses
Sometimes, standard eyewear isn’t enough to address our patients’ complex visual needs. That’s why we offer advanced eyewear solutions that go beyond the ordinary. Our specialty ophthalmic lenses represent the cutting edge of vision technology, designed to address a wide range of specific visual issues and enhance your daily life.
Whether you’re struggling with eye misalignment, digital eye strain, or light sensitivity related to migraine disorder, we have a solution tailored to your needs.
Shaw Lenses
Traditional lenses correct each eye’s vision separately, which can sometimes lead to visual discomfort when the brain combines these images. Shaw lenses take a different approach by considering how both eyes work together. Shaw lenses are designed to balance image sizes between both eyes, addressing many distortion problems that can occur with traditional lenses.
Some benefits of Shaw lenses include
- Balanced image sizes for both eyes
- Reduced visual distortion
- Potential decrease in headaches and eye strain
- Enhanced overall visual comfort
- Lazy eye correction without an eye patch (much more convenient and comfortable for kids!)
Shaw lenses are particularly beneficial for individuals with
- Anisometropia (significant prescription differences between eyes)
- Strabismus (crossed eyes)
- Amblyopia (lazy eye)
- Aniseikonia (when there is a significant difference in the perceived size or shape of images between your two eyes)
Our eye care professionals at SIGHT can assess your visual needs and determine if Shaw lenses are the best option for your specific situation.
Neurolens
Today, many of us spend countless hours staring at screens. This prolonged screen time can lead to a range of uncomfortable symptoms, including:
- Tired and dry eyes
- Light sensitivity
- Neck and shoulder pain
- Dizziness
- Blurry or double vision
- Frequent headaches
If you’ve been experiencing these issues and have found no relief despite visiting multiple doctors and trying various remedies, eye misalignment could be the underlying cause. Fortunately, we offer an innovative solution: Neurolens.
Avulux Migraine & Light Sensitivity Lenses
Avulux is the only clinically proven lens for people living with migraine and light sensitivity.
Do you get 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.
