| Description |
Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS) is characterized by persistent perception of visual static with at least one associated symptom of palinopsia, photopsia, photophobia, nyctalopia, or entoptic phenomena. Currently, there is no effective treatment. Individuals with migraine and blepharospasm have used filtered lenses to manage symptoms of photophobia. The purpose of this investigation is to determine if filtered lenses that maximally block light at 480 nm and 590 nm improve vision-related quality of life. |
