As an alternative to coloured overlays, you can use prescribed tinted lenses in glasses (with or without a prescription).
These will provide a precise and accurate colour tailored specifically for you which can be much more convenient for you especially if you work on a computer.
Again your optician will be able to determine the most effective colour match during your dyslexic test.
It’s important to note that the colour of the precision tinting can be different for the cerium coloured overlays so you cannot have your lenses tinted to the same colour you have your overlays as this will have little benefit.
We don’t have Precision Tinted Lenses available on our website yet but if you know the exact colour you want call 01268 777729 and we can order them for you
Dyslexia is a learning difficulty that primarily affects the skills involved in accurate and fluent word reading and spelling.
Characteristic features of dyslexia are difficulties in phonological awareness (identifying sounds in words), verbal memory, and verbal processing speed.
Dyslexia occurs across the range of intellectual abilities.
It is best thought of as a ‘continuum’ i.e. not a distinct category of symptoms because there are no clear cut-off points.
Someone with dyslexia may also have difficulties with language, motor coordination, mental calculation, concentration, and personal organisation, but these are not, by themselves, markers of dyslexia.
The British Dyslexia Association estimates that around 10 percent of the UK’s population is dyslexic, it is more common in boys than girls.
Dyslexia is a lifelong condition but, with support, it can be managed.
Dyslexia makes it difficult for a person to process information they hear and see.
While those with phonological dyslexia will struggle to repeat rhymes and sequences they have heard, visual dyslexia will impact how they see words and letters.
Dyslexics will therefore put a lot of stress on their eyes trying to focus on what they are reading.
As part of the diagnosis of dyslexia, it is important to rule out visual problems and to treat them where necessary.
Visual dyslexia is a catch-all phrase for people who have difficulty reading as a result of the incorrect processing of visual information received by the brain.
This could be made worse as a result of a physical problem with the eyes, for example being long or short-sighted or as a result of binocular vision anomalies i.e. problems with your eyes working together.
In many cases, the brain struggles to process visual information more in different levels of brightness or using different colour contrasts
In some cases, an inability to process visual information and the tendency to stare harder can result in blurred or double vision and generally tired eyes.
Glasses, contact lenses, or eye exercises can help alleviate physical problems with vision.
This can help children to overcome dyslexia symptoms by reducing any other strain on the eyes.
Visual dyslexia often mimics the symptoms of vision loss, so it can be hard to detect at first. It’s also hard for a child who has been dyslexic from birth to accurately describe what they see because, to them, it is normal.
Such as rubbing eyes, blinking lots, squinting, difficulty in bright lights, headaches/migraines, tired eyes, sensitivity to screens, motion sickness, and general balance and coordination problems.
This includes missing words when reading out loud, letters that move or disappear from the page, blurry words both near and far, transposing letters – such as reading ‘tip’ for ‘pit’.
If the dyslexia is caused by, or made worse, by problems with vision then yes, glasses or contact lenses would help. For some people certain tints on glasses can also help make it easier to read – the colour and density of the tint will vary from person to person.
Our dyslexia specialist will be able to advise other corrective measures such as coloured overlays and certain font types and sizes.
Dyslexia affects more than just reading and writing, it can somtimes impact your memory, coordination and organisation.
Each person’s experience of dyslexia will be unique.
