I myself have gone through 3 different tint checks in 3 years the last one
being a whole different color spectrum, my Irlen specialist has said it
means your brain is changing and what the original glasses did was good and
now it is time for a change, maybe color maybe just lighter or darker.

The first year i had different lenses after just 8 months, i would be
happy for the relief you got from the first set and just think of how good
the second pair will be.

. You may be okay with this pair for ever but depending on your work or
where you go they may again change

.I have to get another pair soon only after 5 months and i could just need a
tint lighter maybe not it works for me i don't question it i just enjoy the
relief and freedom from the crippling headaches.


Alot of people i know they are really questioning too but as long as you
know it works then don't worry.

I am healthier.
