Allay lamp (narrow band green light)
Arm Description
Subjects who purchased the Allay Lamp are asked to document the effects of spending time in the narrow band of green light it emits, on their headache or any of its associated symptoms.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change in number of headache days per week
Number of days with headache per week without and with using the Allay lamp
Change in number of headache days per month
Number of days with headache per month without and with using the Allay lamp
Change in frequency of experiencing photophobia
Assessing frequency of photophobia during days with headache as depicted by participants using the following options: (1)never, rarely, (2)less than half, (3)half or more, (4)nearly all the time.
Change in headache severity
Assessing headache severity while using the Allay lamp. Improvement is determined by the number of times participants answer Yes or NO in their daily diary.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Study volunteers are asked to use the Allay Lamp routinely during the 6-week study period. A web based survey is provided when the Lamp is purchased for study volunteers to complete. A daily usage paper diary is sent with the lamp so that volunteers can keep track of the frequency and duration of lamp usage and any noticeable benefits. At the end of six weeks a second survey is sent to study volunteers to capture their perceptions of potential lamp benefits with respect to headache frequency and their experience of migraine specific symptoms.
