We are pleased to announce that we are now testing for Meares-Irlen Syndrome.

What is Meares-Irlen Syndrome?

Research suggests that up to 20% of the population experience discomfort when viewing certain patterns (including text). This condition is variously referred to as Meares-Irlen Syndrome or Visual Stress.

Symptoms of Meares-Irlen Syndrome include:

• Words appearing to move, wobble or flicker on the page (or screen)
• Words appearing too close together
• Pages appearing too bright or dazzling
• Eye Strain
• Headaches from reading or computer work

Many of these people can be helped with simply using a coloured filter over their paperwork, or computer screen. Other patients find coloured clip-ons, or tinted lenses helpful.
