"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.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
