Migraine Glasses

Has anyone tried migraine glasses to help prevent migraines? If yes, which ones and did they help at all?

My migraines are so frequent at the moment, I feel dreadful everyday. I was taking propranolol which was very beneficial in reducing the number of migraines I get but I developed beta-blocker induced psoriasis and I had to stop. I was switched to amitriptyline a couple of months ago but it doesn’t seem to help with migraines at all. I just find it very difficult to wake up!

I’ve read a few articles about migraine glasses but they are very expensive so I’ve never tried. I’m really desperate now tho, these migraines are so debilitating.

I'm not sure what you mean by migraine glasses but I've suffered from migraines for years recently I've been prescribed Topiramate as a preventative that has helped and I've just ordered myself some blue lensed glasses on advice from a friend to see if they will help when I'm using my laptop.
