TheraSpecs sunglasses provide the ultimate protection for anyone who finds sunlight bothersome, including people with migraine, headache, post-concussion syndrome, photophobia, and other symptoms triggered or worsened by sunlight
By targeting the wavelengths of light that the brain perceives as brightest, TheraSpecs® FL-Sun™ sunglasses provide a superior lens for anyone who finds sunlight uncomfortable. These are the same wavelengths of light that research shows cause the most pain and other symptoms for people who have migraine, brain injuries, and other light-sensitive conditions. Our FL-41 sunglasses relieve painful light sensitivity and photophobia, reduce migraine attacks, and protect from harsh sunlight. Their dark, polarized lenses reduce glare and they block 100% of UVA and UVB light.
Our customers rave about TheraSpecs sunglasses for the relief they provide for their symptoms triggered by sunlight and outdoor glare. These are some of our favorite reviews:

WITHOUT FEAR
"I got diagnosed at 10 w/ migraines...It was so bad that I couldn’t be outside if the sun was out no matter how dark my glasses were. Fast forward to 5 years later and you won’t catch me without my TheraSpecs on! I can go outside now without fear of a migraine."

Not All Sunglasses Deliver the Same Protection
The best sunglasses are more than just dark lenses. By adding FL-41 to a dark lens, TheraSpecs FL-Sun™ block light at the specific wavelengths that research shows cause the most problems for people who are sensitive to sunlight. Sunlight is exceptionally high in these wavelengths—it can emit 250 times of these wavelengths as artificial light—which can make it too bright even for people who don’t have a health condition.1
TheraSpecs FL-Sun lenses perform better than prominent eyewear brands at the most critical wavelengths (including protection from outdoor blue light). Even other FL-41 products do not match the properties of TheraSpecs sunglasses, making TheraSpecs the best sunglasses for outdoor sensitivity. That extra protection can make all the difference when you are sensitive to light and/or have a condition like migraine or post-concussion syndrome.
TheraSpecs sunglasses also feature polarized lenses and 100% UVA/UVB blocking. Polarization helps eliminate reflective glare and increases the darkness of the lenses, while maximum UVA/UVB protection cuts down on non-visible ultraviolet light that can harm our eyes.
All these factors combine to bring enhanced comfort when you’re outdoors.
TheraSpecs FL-Sun comes standard with Dark+ strength. And if those aren’t dark enough, we also make TheraSpecs FL-Sun UltraDark+ as a specialty lens to block even more harsh sunlight. They are so dark that they are not suitable for driving, but are excellent for other outdoor activities.
Research shows that TheraSpecs sunglasses:
Block harsh sunlight and more than 92% of symptom-triggering wavelengths
Relieve painful light sensitivity and photophobia
Reduce migraines and headaches by up to 74 percent
Minimize glare with polarized lenses
Block 100% of UVA/UVB light
Designed for Maximum Relief
TheraSpecs frames are designed specifically for people with light-sensitive disorders, such as migraine, post-concussion syndrome, and numerous others—and they can also be great for anybody who wants more comfort outdoors. We offer styles to block light from above and the sides to reduce sun exposure and all TheraSpecs are as lightweight as possible and add flexibility to minimize pressure on already-sensitive heads. Prescription and reader TheraSpecs can be created with any of our therapeutic tints, and custom frames—in any style you choose, including clip-ons—can also be fitted with TheraSpecs lenses.
