Irlen Screening

Irlen Syndrome, also known as Scotopic Sensitivity System is a type of visual perceptual problem. It is not an optical problem. It is a problem with how the nervous system encodes and decodes visual information. Academic and work performance, behavior, attention, ability to sit still and concentration can all be affected.  Individuals with Irlen syndrome see the printed page differently. Many do not realize their page is different. Irlen syndrome prevents many people from reading effectively and efficiently.  Irlen has a patented method using specially formulated colored overlays, or spectral filters worn as glasses or contact lenses, to reduce or eliminate perception difficulties.
