rxotulsa + Avulux®:

At rxotulsa, we’re proud to partner with Avulux®, a pioneering company that has
transformed migraine and light sensitivity care through scientifically engineered optical
filters. These are not your typical “blue light” or “tinted” glasses — Avulux lenses are
backed by peer-reviewed studies and precision engineering designed to help those
living with migraine manage the impact of light in everyday life.

Through this partnership, rxotulsa brings Avulux’s proven light-filtering technology
directly to independent eye care professionals — offering your patients real relief and
giving your practice access to the only evidence-based migraine and light sensitivity
lens on the market.

Our Partnership with HOYA Vision

At rxotulsa, we’re proud to partner with HOYA Vision, a global leader in optical innovation and lens technology. This partnership allows us to provide eye care professionals with access to HOYA’s most advanced products while maintaining the personalized service and craftsmanship that define our lab.

Together, rxotulsa and HOYA share a commitment to delivering precision, performance, and long-term visual comfort to every patient.

Light and Migraine: Understanding the Connection

Our eyes do far more than help us see — they process light through multiple types of photoreceptors that can directly influence pain. Research has shown that, beyond rods and cones, there are special cells in the retina called intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) that release melanopsin when activated by certain wavelengths of light (typically between 400–500nm).

For individuals with migraine, these light wavelengths can amplify head pain and trigger or worsen attacks. The Avulux team built on this research, using melanopsin activity as a key foundation in developing their precision optical filter technology — designed to selectively block the harmful bands of light that stimulate these cells.

 

Precision Tinting and Targeted Filtering

Not all light-filtering glasses are created equal. Earlier studies comparing generic gray or color filters against precision-tinted lenses found that only precision filters could normalize brain activation patterns in migraine patients, providing measurable neurological relief.

That insight led to the next generation of migraine-specific optical design — where Avulux lenses now stand as the industry benchmark. They don’t just dim the world; they manage light scientifically, filtering only what’s harmful while preserving natural color and visual comfort.

The Science Behind Avulux®

2016 Study: Avulux researchers tested lenses designed to block light specifically in the 480nm range, corresponding to melanopsin’s peak sensitivity. Published in the Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, the results confirmed that filtering these wavelengths had a measurable, physiological benefit for migraine sufferers.

2020 Study: Building on that success, Avulux engineered a multi-band precision filter capable of absorbing up to 97% of the most aggravating blue, amber, and red light while allowing in soothing green light. Independent, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials verified both clinical and statistical significance — solid evidence that Avulux lenses can meaningfully improve quality of life for people with migraine.

Avulux®: A New Approach to Light Sensitivity

Roughly 80% of people with migraine experience light sensitivity (photophobia). Traditional coping methods — dark rooms, heavy sunglasses, tinted coatings — offer limited help and can worsen long-term sensitivity.

Avulux solves this problem with an engineered light management system that transforms how patients interact with their environments. Each lens absorbs harmful light bands and allows beneficial wavelengths through, giving wearers that “dark room” relief without sacrificing vision or color accuracy.

Many patients describe it as “your portable dark room™” — an everyday tool that instantly eases discomfort and keeps them functioning in bright conditions.

Why Choose Avulux Over Other Lenses?

Before Avulux, migraine and light sensitivity glasses were largely based on guesswork — blue light blockers, FL-41 tints, or colored filters. While these options may offer mild relief, they lack clinical validation and consistent optical quality.

Avulux is the only patented, evidence-based optical lens scientifically proven to selectively absorb harmful wavelengths while preserving color fidelity. Every pair is manufactured with precise molecular-level engineering, so even if the surface is scratched, the light-filtering properties remain intact.

In short:

  • With Avulux: Clinically validated light control, natural color, and lasting relief.
  • Without Avulux: Inconsistent tints, poor durability, and no scientific assurance.

Reliability and Comfort by Design

Avulux lenses are hard-coated, anti-scratch, and uniform throughout, ensuring long-term performance and protection. Frames are lightweight, stylish, and comfortable enough for all-day wear. Whether indoors, at work, or outdoors, Avulux allows wearers to face the light confidently — without discomfort, distortion, or dark adaptation.

The Avulux Promise

Your patients deserve tools backed by science and built for real life. When you partner with rxotulsa to offer Avulux, you’re giving them access to the only migraine lens clinically proven to filter light precisely and effectively.

Try Avulux risk-free for 60 days — and experience firsthand how engineered light management can transform comfort, confidence, and clarity for those living with migraine.
