Hi Lisa.  I saw your question and it struck a familiar chord.  I recently stumbled into a similar link of tinted leneses in research in the UK (?) in migraine benefit.  in continuted searching, I found that the Irlen institute has been working with people with sensitivity to light from some time now and often starts with colored acetate overlays - for school and reading, computer it is basic and cheaper for many.  But they do have precision color tinted lenses. And contacts.  They are not prescription.  These are to be a more practical and all around useful solution, especially for people like us.

I know this because I met with an Irlen representative myself.  What the Michigan study says about patterns, I found absolutely to be the case with the colored lenses.  I was floored! I do not know if it will have an impact on my migraine issues.  But I can tell that it has an impact on my brain.  I was really impressed.  I understand that not everyone is effected in this way.  But the Irlen people have actualy been working with this scenario for quite a while so it may be a good place to start.
