If Irlen Syndrome makes you light sensitive why can’t I just wear ‘normal’ sunglasses?
Elaine is 18 years old and came to the Krist Samaritan Center because she is so light sensitive she has to wear dark sunglasses all of the time, particularly when reading and working under the lights at school. Even then she still gets a headache when working on a computer.

Do you feel like you have POOR PERIPHERAL vision or TUNNEL vision? When looking at something directly is the area around it blurred? It could be to do with SPAN OF RECOGNITION/FOCUS that can affect people with Irlen Syndrome -which is a visual processing disorder, not to do with the structure of the eye.

Julie, he has been reading 30 minutes every night with his overlay to work on his comprehension. I cannot tell you how huge this is. Prior to meeting with you last week he has never voluntarily read anything. We are thrilled! What a difference meeting you has made. Thank you.
