Problems with Eye Test? You may have Irlen Syndrome.
All Entries
The last video Krist Samaritan Irlen Clinic (Houston/Galveston) shared of 12 year old Gianna demonstrated how those with Irlen Syndrome (visual processing disorder) need to use their reading overlay in order to obtain an accurate Rx test. Only when distortions of the letters are stopped can the correct Rx be gauged.
This current video demonstrates how Irlen Spectral Filters (worn as glasses) can filter the light directly entering the eye and so stop the wavelengths causing the distortions without need of a reading overlay. The color used in Irlen glasses can also be much more precise and in addition stop any distortions of objects in the environment as well as text.
Watch Gianna ‘ace’ reading the Eye Chart with her Irlen lens color, as well as explain what the letters usually look like even with her correct Rx. It was also wonderful to hear her explain how it felt when those letters stopped changing and moving!
