Description
The Fl-41 lenses are designed to reduce the amount of light that is perceived by the user, which is thought to be effective in preventing migraines and other forms of light sensitivity. The glasses are also effective at reducing photophobia and light sensitivity that does not result in migraines, particularly light sensitivity caused by florescent lighting and sunlight.
Fl-41 is the tint most commonly recommended by doctors and specialists for the prevention of light sensitivity and migraines. One study found that the use of Fl-41 glasses reduced the number of migraines by an average of 74% in a four month period. Outdoor Fl-41 glasses are also effective at reducing photophobia and light sensitivity that does not result in migraines, particularly light sensitivity caused by florescent lighting and sunlight.
