Visual Stress Assessment

dyslexic visual assessment essexIt's estimated up to 1 in every 10 people in the UK has some degree of dyslexiaDyslexia is a lifelong problem that can present challenges on a daily basis, but support is available to improve reading and writing skills and help those with the problem to be successful at school and work

Reading discomfort or visual stress can often be linked to dyslexia and affects people who are unable to “grasp the meaning of written or printed words and sentences” or “to read more than a few lines with understanding.” It is believed that Dyslexia could be a visual disorder as well as a neurological disorder. Problems can show themselves in reading, writing, number work, short-term memory, hand control and visual processing. Timekeeping, sense of direction and interpersonal skills can also be affected.

At Bentley Opticians, we are able to help children and adults with visual stress and their visual processing using various specially tinted lenses. ChromaGen is a unique system of coloured lenses for dyslexia. It provides a quick and reliable screening test for visual dyslexia. When the patient selects the right colour combination during the assessment an immediate improvement can be experienced including clearer text, ease of reading and word and number recognition. As a result, text typically becomes clearer and stays still on the page. Please contact us directly for further information on this service.
