I have migraines with visual changes 3-4 times a year. Last year I started having them several times a week. Obviously, I became very interested in finding a way to treat or prevent them. After months of almost weekly MD visits it was discovered that the migraines were ocular. I had recently transitioned to an e-reader and it correlated to the increase in migraines. I read at least 4 hours a day along with several other hours looking at my laptop and IPhone. My treating Physician instructed me to turn down the brightness on all devices. It worked beautifully! I stopped having the frequent migraines within a week.
