Has anyone tried tinted, polarized lens, or anti reflective lens in their eyeglasses to possibly lessen seizures? I have noticed my blue tinted sunglasses make my eyes calmer. I know most everyone wears contact lens days but I've read that these type lens can lessen migraines so I am wondering if they might also help seizures. Anyone have info on this? Thanks.

For someone who has photosensitive epilepsy, using sunglasses would help. http://www.epilepsysociety.org.uk/photosensitive-epilepsy is just one of several sites I came across when I googled " can wearing sunglasses reduce the number of seizures?"

I would say to do your own experiment, using yourself as the subject :) If it helps you then that is fantastic, and there will be many of us here who will be interested in reading what you find out.

I haven't tested their lens, but they might be worth a try.
