The Apple and The Prism
Once upon a time, a falling apple and a beam of light helped one person see the world differently.
At Newton, The Apple & the Prism is where we take that same curiosity and apply it to the tools and resources that power our conversations: understanding clinical data, products and technologies, and market positioning.
This is our internal space to shift complex information into clear, usable insight — refracting apples into action.

Quantifying Pain: Neurolens and the HIT-6
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode we’re diving into a parallel-arm, crossover, double-masked, double-blind study evaluating how Neurolens impacts HIT-6 scores, a gold-standard measure for headache severity and life impact.
You’ll hear a clear breakdown of the study design, why the methodology matters, and what the results reveal about the reduction of headache-related disability when patients wear contoured prism lenses. We also unpack the HIT-6 itself — what it measures, why clinicians rely on it, and how even small shifts in scoring can translate into meaningful improvements in daily life.
If you’ve ever wondered how Neurolens benefits hold up under rigorous scientific scrutiny, or you need an easy way to explain the significance of HIT-6 outcomes to colleagues or patients, this episode gives you a concise, accessible overview backed by solid clinical research.
