[QUOTE="Malika, post: 462922, member: 11227"] [B]From the net: [url]http://www.bdadyslexia.org.uk/about-dyslexia/further-information/eyes-and-dyslexia.html[/url] Eyes and Dyslexia[/B] Around 35-40% of people with dyslexic difficulties are estimated to experience visual disturbance or discomfort when reading print. They may experience one or several of the following: [LIST] [*]Blurred letters or words which go out of focus. [*]Letters which move or present with back to front appearance or shimmering or shaking. [*]Headaches from reading. [*]Words or letters which break into two and appear as double. [*]Find it easier to read large, widely spaced print, than small and crowded. [*]Difficulty with tracking across the page. [*]Upset by glare on the page or oversensitive to bright lights. [/LIST] In some cases any of these symptoms can significantly affect reading ability. It can also make reading very tiring. Of course a child will not necessarily recognise what they see as a problem, as this is how they always see text. [B]If a child complains of a least one of these problems or has difficulty at school, they should be referred to an optometrist or orthoptist with expertise in this particular field.[/B] [/QUOTE]
