Hi,
Thanks for your ideas. I have not seen any glasses like you describe here
in Alberta, Canada. The tint of our Irlen lenses would be changed by combining
it with a sunglass tint. How does that affect you? I love my Irlen tint, and
would not like to mess with that. I will check into this, thanks.

Subject: [Glimmer 'Colored Filter Glasses'] Light Seasonal Change


For a temporary solution to the light leak, a thought...
I use some wrap-around glasses from Walgreens drug store ($20) over my Irlen
lenses for outdoors. There are other wraparounds that are more expensive,
too, and a variety of colors.

> Hi,
> I am very affected by seasonal changes in the sun's position and
quality of light. A migraine sufferer, I get about 15 migraines a month
starting in August and running through to May, with only about 5 a month
from May to the end of July. I believe it is partly the influence of
Chinook winds here in Southern Alberta, Canada, and partly the light coming
in around my glasses. The angle of the sun being different, and the light
itself having a different quality, the peripheral light seems to become more
of a problem, also the glare of sun on the snow could have something to do
with it. My screener and I have been trying to find something that would
wrap around my glasses and block this peripheral light, but no luck so far.
Leather wrap-arounds are available, but just for certain types of
sunglasses. I could not find frames that blocked the light coming in from
around the lenses. Any ideas would be welcome. I have heard that other
people also suffer more from the light in winter months.
