Over 13 years ago, I noticed I shared symptoms with a dyslexic friend. After testing, I was urged to get an Irlen assessment, as it could be the real cause of my struggles. I finally did it this year, and yesterday, I got my tinted glasses. Already feeling calmer and less overstimulated—hoping for long-term benefits! #IrlenSyndrome #VisualStress #Neurodiversity #TintedLenses #Irlen #ScotopicSensitivitySyndrome

And then... I realised my tint in my glasses is a light greeny-aqua colour 🤯

Has to be connected, surely!?!?

Does anyone here know how #Irlen lenses work?

Can anyone confirm my hypothesis that due to aque-green being the colour lens I need, that's why I saw the green dot separating in the measuring tool??

Long story, short bit from yesterday had a fascinating (for me!) thing happen...

I have #Irlen lens since a head injury in 2019. I was in ordering prescription sunglasses 😎and had the little binocular box thing to look in for measurements. There is a green dot on a white background. Not very interesting yet you say and I'd agree!
