"I have been impressed with your app, because so far it has nailed who does and doesn’t have Irlen syndrome"

Recent studies indicate that up to 1 in 20 of the general population find their reading speed increases by more than 25% when the correct shade of coloured overlay is used to change the look of the page.

Some dyslexics and migraine sufferers are among those that can benefit from employing such overlays. The precise shade required varies from person to person.

Sufferers from this form of Visual Stress also known as Meares-Irlen syndrome or Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome can often be dazzled by bright white backgrounds to text.

Commonly experienced symptoms of sufferers when trying to read include...
-Text is blurry,
-Text moves around,
-Words spaced too close together/too far apart,
-Worm, river or waterfall type patterns appear on page
-Pain, nausea or dizziness.

However you may even be unaware that there is an issue affecting your ability to read - until you see how much better reading is with the right coloured overlay.

And theres more, for those who discover that coloured overlays would be helpful, there is a sister app called aaLuminate to give you the right overlay on your device whenever you need it.

EDUCATION PROFESSIONALS:

The test used in the app follows a similar pattern to traditional assessments that use physical coloured overlays placed over a piece of text and compared side by side.

aaSsessMyVS is a useful tool to determine quickly whether a formal test for Scotopic Sensitivity Syndrome would be appropriate for any of your students.
It includes the ability to email the result of the test to an email address of your choosing, including the test subject name and an additional note.
So you can screen a whole group of students in 1 session and store the results in your email inbox to follow up on afterwards.
