Groundbreaking treatment for children with Dyslexia

As seen on Meridian Tonight.

Based on research, Robin Pauc, director of the Tinsley House Clinic suggests that 30% of children currently diagnosed as having dyslexia have instead a common eye condition that can be diagnosed in minutes and treated in weeks. Imagine if 30% of dyslexic children could start reading fluently in such a short time frame.

GET SOME COLORED GLASSES! Like trying to teach a blind person to drive a car. You can tell them how to shift and turn, but they can't see the road. In 1988, 60 minutes aired a segment, colored glasses for dyslexics. I was severally dyslexic. I went out and got a pair. Purple was my color. Blues or reds are the colors that work best. At 28 I could read for the first time! I could see the print. It's a physical handicap. Side note, after laysic eye surgery I don’t need my colored glasses any more.

For those interested in this treatment, there is a long and detailed discussion of it on the 'Being Dyslexic' forum. Robin Pauc himself contributes to the debate - which is sometimes rather knock-about, as the claims are not universally accepted.
