Some studies have shown that using coloured overlays for reading can help improve reading proficiency and efficiency for people with Dyslexia, Irlen Syndrome, potentially ADHD, and other people who suffer from Visual Stress.
Visual stress is believed to be caused by the striped effect of black text on a white background, which causes over stimulation and excitation of the visual cortex. Coloured overlays can reduce contrast between the text and the background and make it easier for users to focus on the text.
The Dyslexic Research Trust suggests Yellow and Blue are the best colours, the Irlen Institute recommends Yellow, Blue, and Green, but some other studies have shown that people may prefer to pick another colour, which is why our packs contain 8 colours to choose from.
Our easy reading overlays are DL - the perfect size to use over any documentation.
