What Is a Neurolens and How Can It Help My Migraines?

"You don’t have to live with daily migraines, eye strain, or screen fatigue—sometimes, the right lenses can change everything."

Today we are joined by Dr. Maria Della Porta, Founder of Della Porta Eyecare to explore an innovative solution for patients experiencing chronic migraines, eye strain, neck tension, and computer vision syndrome: the Neurolens.

Dr. Della Porta shares how this advanced lens technology—originally developed in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic—has helped patients reduce symptoms and reclaim quality of life. You’ll hear the inspiring story of a young woman whose debilitating migraines were significantly reduced after being fitted with Neurolenses, and learn how these lenses work by correcting misalignments in the visual system.

We also discuss how Neurolens compares to blue light glasses, when prism lenses are needed, and how optometrists determine the best treatment for patients struggling with visual symptoms.

If you or someone you know suffers from headaches, visual fatigue, or eye discomfort, this episode opens the door to new possibilities—and faster relief.
